However, when his beloved owner embarks on a very special correspondence, the spaniel senses change is in the air. His fears are confirmed with the arrival of a new visitor to the invalid's bedroom.

When Flush realises he longer occupies the most important place in Miss Barrett's affections, he decides to make his feelings about the usurper Mr Browning clear in the only way he knows.
