Help comes in the form of a sheepdog pup, and his loneliness is forgotten when Tom realizes it is his, to love and to train (maybe to be a champion?). Life on the hill-farm, with his new friend Elspeth, and Flash, becomes adventurous and challenging.Then his sister writes that Tom can come and live with her in America, and he is faced with the most difficult decision of his life.
