As described in a film magazine review,[3] evading the police, Jim Carvel tramps north, where he makes friends with Baree, a pup. He falls from a cliff and is rescued by Pierre and his daughter, Nepeese. Bush McTaggart desires the young woman and, in a fight over her, Pierre is killed and Baree is shot. Nepeese is rescued and takes refuge with an Indian. Later, Carvel returns and saves Baree from death in one of McTaggart's traps. He is led to Nepeese by the dog. When McTaggart makes one final effort to possess the young woman, Baree attacks the man and takes his life.
