Mr Morf is a circus dog. Instead of fetching the newspaper or guarding the house like other dogs, he balances on the high wire, way up in the big top. Day after day after day. Fame, however, isn't everything, and one day Mr Morf wakes up feeling sick with loneliness. Something needs to be done so he packs his bag and sets off in search of a friend. Finding a soulmate, however, is a tricky business and Mr Morf soon loses heart. Then, just as he is about to give up hope...he starts to laugh and laugh. He has a flea and she is tickling Mr Morf to bits! A friend at last...and what closer companion could he ask for than that!
