Flush is an unusual name for a dog.
I'm sure that, in Le Carré 's Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy, Connie Sach's dog is called Flush (at least in the BBC TV adaptation). I wonder whether it was named after this Flush?

I love illustrations in books. These drawings are by Vanessa Bell for Woolf's Flush.

But what is ‚oneself’? Is it the thing people see? Or is it the thing one is?“

How can we (humans and dogs) adapt more easily to a new environment? Flush shows the way.
„Thus, before many of these walks were over, a new conception had entered his brain. Setting one thing beside another, he had arrived at a conclusion.“
