00:00:49 [woman] Go!
00:00:58 [dogs panting]
00:01:04 [dogs barking]
00:02:02 Where nature rules,
00:02:05 What?
00:02:06 That's something your
00:02:15 [man] I never get tired
00:02:18 Isn't it something?
00:02:20 I see trees, Grandpa...
00:02:22 ...and snow.
00:02:28 [Grandpa] So...
00:02:29 Your mom and dad are
00:02:32 [girl] And they didn't take me.
00:02:35 I'm so happy you're
00:02:38 [girl] Mom said you
00:02:40 [Grandpa] Well, you're not
00:02:43 ...you're family.
00:02:49 Too bad you didn't come in
00:02:51 We could've watched
00:02:54 One of the biggest dog sled
00:02:57 Dog sled race?
00:03:00 You would've enjoyed it.
00:03:04 [dogs panting]
00:03:05 [Grandpa] Dogs are magnificent.
00:03:15 If you want me to slow down
00:03:18 just say the word.
00:03:20 [sighs]
00:03:29 [Grandpa] You mind
00:03:31 I need to go to the post office.
00:03:33 How far is town?
00:03:35 We're here.
00:03:36 This is town?
00:03:37 [Grandpa] Yep.
00:03:40 I love this town.
00:03:42 You don't get this
00:03:48 This is it.
00:03:50 Want to see our post office?
00:03:51 That's very tempting, Grandpa,
00:03:54 [chuckles]
00:03:55 [man] Damn, boy.
00:03:57 That is the fourth race
00:03:58 Fourth!
00:04:00 In front of the entire town.
00:04:03 The sled runners are bent
00:04:06 - Maybe we should let them rest.
00:04:09 You're nothing but a
00:04:13 - Oh, here.
00:04:14 Quit your moping.
00:04:16 Heep.
00:04:18 Is that any way you treat a boy?
00:04:20 Why don't you mind your
00:04:23 Shouldn't you be home...
00:04:25 ...having a heart attack?
00:04:28 Come on!
00:04:36 - Hi, Mr. Hale.
00:04:38 Did you see the race? I came in
00:04:41 Fourth?
00:04:42 [Jack] I was running first
00:04:43 until the last few turns.
00:04:45 I notice you tend
00:04:46 just when those dogs
00:04:48 Grandpa? I'm cold and bored.
00:04:51 I'm cold and bored.
00:04:53 Well, we'll get you home
00:04:56 Ryan, this is Jack Ferguson,
00:04:59 That's my granddaughter.
00:05:02 City girl, huh?
00:05:03 I should get the dogs fed.
00:06:04 - Whatcha looking at?
00:06:07 [laughs]
00:06:09 No, but I got hot chocolate.
00:06:12 Come on.
00:06:13 Your mom gave me a list of
00:06:17 so you don't fall
00:06:20 Looks like a lot of work.
00:06:22 Not really.
00:06:24 Uh-huh.
00:06:25 You still play soccer?
00:06:27 No?
00:06:28 You were a pretty fine
00:06:30 The Beacon Hill girls
00:06:32 - They say it's for tomboys.
00:06:35 The Beacon Hill girls?
00:06:37 Brittney and Chloe. They're the
00:06:40 Oh, and they're
00:06:42 I tell people they are,
00:06:44 I don't think they say
00:06:46 Oh, I see.
00:06:47 They have the best cell phones,
00:06:50 Brittney goes skiing in Italy.
00:06:51 And Chloe's family owns
00:06:54 [chuckles]
00:06:55 Impressive.
00:06:58 And I'm stuck here
00:07:00 Oh...
00:07:02 A sad fate for
00:07:04 - [wind blowing]
00:07:09 [Grandpa] Bed time,
00:07:13 Would you like me
00:07:15 Grandpa, I'm ten.
00:07:18 Oh. Right. Yeah.
00:07:21 Sorry.
00:07:30 [howling]
00:07:44 [howling]
00:07:53 [owl hooting]
00:08:06 Hi, are you staying
00:08:08 - Yeah.
00:08:10 Wanna come?
00:08:11 Pine cones?
00:08:12 Gosh, that sounds
00:08:16 She's not from around here,
00:08:23 These mountain people are crazy.
00:08:25 - [Grandpa] What's all this?
00:08:28 - All the things I want.
00:08:30 - A clip for your hair.
00:08:33 Chloe has one.
00:08:35 I see.
00:08:36 Mom and dad won't let me
00:08:39 They say not getting everything
00:08:43 I think I would have a lot of
00:08:47 You do, huh?
00:08:48 But I never get any good
00:08:51 Oh...
00:08:52 The world is full of surprises,
00:08:55 if you look at it
00:08:57 That sounds like grandpa talk.
00:08:59 [chuckles]
00:09:01 But thanks for trying
00:09:43 - [thudding, squealing]
00:09:53 Hello.
00:09:57 Hey.
00:10:00 What's up?
00:10:02 I heard something.
00:10:05 [chuckles] No.
00:10:07 Probably a raccoon.
00:10:08 They like to show up and
00:10:11 when I forget to lock
00:10:16 Let's surprise them.
00:10:19 [rattling, bell jingles]
00:10:36 - [Grandpa] It's a dog.
00:10:39 [Grandpa] Not just a dog.
00:10:42 Look at the size of him.
00:10:44 [whines]
00:10:46 Careful...
00:10:48 ...it might be feral.
00:10:50 Feral?
00:10:51 Wild. There's some
00:10:56 This dog's in bad shape.
00:11:01 [man] He's been fighting.
00:11:04 Could be some internal bleeding.
00:11:06 Is he going to die?
00:11:07 It doesn't look good.
00:11:08 He's hardly breathing,
00:11:11 And, Bill,
00:11:13 ...not entirely, anyway.
00:11:15 - What do you mean?
00:11:17 He's got a lot of wolf in him.
00:11:19 Can we keep him?
00:11:20 Look... This animal is
00:11:23 I could operate,
00:11:25 but I think the only reasonable
00:11:27 ...put him to sleep.
00:11:28 You mean to kill him?
00:11:31 - You can't just kill him.
00:11:33 If he wants to die
00:11:35 But I'm not going
00:11:37 [man] Tell you what.
00:11:39 How about I check in
00:11:40 I'm guessing by then the only
00:11:43 ...disposal.
00:11:44 Hold it right there now.
00:11:46 We're talking about a wolf here,
00:11:50 - [growls]
00:11:52 - I mean, is it safe?
00:11:55 He's in no condition
00:11:57 And he looks like he's
00:11:59 It's safe.
00:12:07 Thanks, Doc.
00:12:08 - All right.
00:12:18 OK, Ry...
00:12:20 Let's let him sleep and we'll
00:12:24 Can we put a heater
00:12:27 Sure.
00:12:29 Thanks, Grandpa.
00:12:35 This is Call of the Wild
00:12:38 One of my favorite books
00:12:40 when I was just a little bit
00:12:42 But kids these days,
00:12:45 This isn't about bunny rabbits
00:12:49 It's about a dog.
00:12:53 "Buck did not read
00:12:56 or he would have known
00:12:59 Who's Buck?
00:13:01 Buck is a dog.
00:13:05 The writing gets kind of fancy,
00:13:09 - Paraphrase?
00:13:11 Put it into my own words.
00:13:13 - OK.
00:13:15 "You see, it was 1897
00:13:18 and gold was discovered
00:13:21 - That's in Canada.
00:13:23 "Now, down in sunny California
00:13:29 who lived on a huge estate.
00:13:31 Buck was four years old.
00:13:33 Part St. Bernard and
00:13:37 He was large and very smart,
00:13:40 and he lived like a king.
00:13:43 On the property worked a
00:13:48 When he learned that there was
00:13:51 he took Buck to meet a strange
00:13:55 Money changed hands
00:13:58 and the gardener handed
00:14:02 Buck could not know that when
00:14:05 he would never see
00:14:12 How about we continue
00:14:16 I'm not sleepy yet.
00:14:31 Ryan!
00:14:37 Buttercup!
00:14:42 Butter... Buttercup!
00:14:44 [panting, whining]
00:14:47 [Grandpa] Ry.
00:14:48 What are you doing?
00:14:50 He's feeling better.
00:14:53 How long have you
00:14:55 Just since the sun came up.
00:14:57 He thinks he's a dog.
00:14:59 - Can I keep him?
00:15:03 Not anymore.
00:15:06 Really?
00:15:08 Buck.
00:15:11 I want you to understand that,
00:15:15 he's still a wild animal.
00:15:21 Listen...
00:15:22 I have to do some
00:15:25 What do you say we go
00:15:27 Can we get some food
00:15:30 [chuckles] Sure.
00:15:32 Let's go.
00:15:42 [woman] Hi, Mr. Hale.
00:15:43 Hi, Marla.
00:15:45 I'm doing good.
00:15:46 Doing great.
00:15:48 Good.
00:15:52 How would you like
00:15:57 Are you kidding?
00:15:58 I would be laughed
00:16:02 Hey, do you have any wolf food?
00:16:03 Wolf food?
00:16:06 Oh, you mean like wolf chow?
00:16:07 No, I'm afraid we don't.
00:16:10 Then what's the best dog food
00:16:12 I haven't tasted any myself, but
00:16:16 is the Happy Dog Banquet Feast.
00:16:18 Ry, I think dry food
00:16:21 Mom and dad said
00:16:24 and I want Buck to have
00:16:31 Put this on my tab,
00:16:33 Sure thing, Mr. Hale.
00:16:35 Oh! I have something
00:16:41 It's for Marcy.
00:16:43 Actually, it's for you.
00:16:45 It's that old sweater you
00:16:47 Your wife asked me
00:16:49 on the elbows for you.
00:16:52 Well, you know,
00:16:56 I'm sorry.
00:17:09 She used to hate
00:17:12 Always teased me
00:17:14 when I wasn't looking.
00:17:17 [sighs]
00:17:19 Thought she...
00:17:21 ...finally did.
00:17:23 Nope. I guess she just wanted
00:17:37 God bless you, Mr. Hale.
00:17:50 - [whines]
00:17:51 Come on. It's really cozy.
00:17:53 [whimpers]
00:18:01 Can I sleep out here
00:18:03 What do you suppose the chances
00:18:08 When you put it like that
00:18:12 Good guess.
00:18:13 - For that you get a prize.
00:18:16 All the toothpaste
00:18:19 - Come on.
00:18:30 [whimpering]
00:18:33 - [Grandpa]
00:18:36 Try and stay awake so I can get
00:18:41 "Buck was put into the baggage
00:18:46 This train traveled
00:18:49 where Buck was put
00:18:53 For seven days the ship
00:18:56 And for seven days Buck
00:19:00 What little food
00:19:02 was brought by a man
00:19:06 Buck blamed the man for
00:19:09 When he had his chance,
00:19:11 - Buck tried to get away...
00:19:14 ...but the man had a club.
00:19:16 Buck had never been struck
00:19:19 The man beat him and beat him
00:19:25 He learned that a man
00:19:29 The man in the red sweater said:
00:19:31 'Obey, dog, and you'll
00:19:34 Be a bad dog and I'll beat
00:19:39 Buck understood, but he
00:19:46 Does he get away?
00:19:47 We'll have to see.
00:19:49 Seems Buck has entered a world
00:19:53 And that could mean trouble.
00:19:55 I'm glad our Buck ended up
00:20:01 Good night, Buttercup.
00:20:03 Sweet dreams.
00:20:28 [Buck growling]
00:20:30 [barking]
00:20:33 - [growling]
00:20:35 You wanna be a pet, don't you?
00:20:36 - Pets have it made.
00:20:38 It's a nice collar.
00:20:43 Come on, Buck.
00:20:45 [continues howling]
00:20:55 Buck, it's so pretty.
00:20:58 [chuckles]
00:20:59 Wonders never cease.
00:21:02 - [barking]
00:21:04 - Hey, kid.
00:21:06 - Is that a wolf?
00:21:09 - His name's Buck.
00:21:12 Smart, too.
00:21:13 [howls]
00:21:16 Hey.
00:21:18 - Morning, Jack.
00:21:21 Didn't get much sleep
00:21:24 I don't sleep much at all
00:21:26 [barking]
00:21:28 He likes me.
00:21:31 I'm going to talk mom and dad
00:21:33 - [growls]
00:21:35 Wait till Brittney
00:21:37 Chloe's family has an Afghan
00:21:40 But nobody,
00:21:41 and I mean nobody in
00:21:44 [engine approaching]
00:21:49 [barking]
00:22:10 Come on, Ryan.
00:22:14 You're gonna love
00:22:16 [bells chime]
00:22:18 - Hey, Mr. Hale.
00:22:20 - Good. How are you doing?
00:22:24 I have something to take care of
00:22:27 Tracy, let this little girl
00:22:31 As long as she doesn't
00:22:33 - OK.
00:22:35 Can you please not call me
00:22:38 - It's embarrassing.
00:22:40 How about
00:22:47 - Hey, Jack.
00:22:52 Hi, Tracy. Hi.
00:22:54 I didn't know you
00:22:57 I... I came in for a...
00:23:00 ...drink.
00:23:01 I... I mean soda.
00:23:02 I think we can manage that.
00:23:05 You race sled dogs?
00:23:06 Well, I try to.
00:23:08 I can't believe people make
00:23:12 Are you kidding?
00:23:13 They love it!
00:23:14 They're bred for it.
00:23:16 Once you have them hooked in,
00:23:17 it's hard to keep them
00:23:19 How come you didn't win?
00:23:21 My lead dog isn't very good.
00:23:23 Takes a very special dog
00:23:29 [Ryan] I have the most
00:23:31 Because he's part wolf.
00:23:33 [Ozz coughing]
00:23:36 Ozz, are you still trying
00:23:40 Practice your bad habit outside.
00:23:49 Hey! What's so funny,
00:23:53 I... I see you got yourself
00:23:55 Sure she's not too
00:23:57 I'm mature enough to know that
00:23:59 Oh! [laughs]
00:24:03 How would you like to
00:24:05 - ...on your head?
00:24:09 Ozz, you're finished now.
00:24:13 OK.
00:24:21 [sighs]
00:24:22 So this wolf dog you found...
00:24:23 ...maybe he'd make
00:24:26 Maybe, but I'm taking
00:24:29 I wish he wandered
00:24:31 Strong as any dog
00:24:33 and smart enough
00:24:35 I can tell.
00:24:38 [barking]
00:24:46 Ah, he's learning.
00:24:47 Hey.
00:24:48 Just for fun,
00:24:50 why don't we get the harness,
00:24:54 What?
00:24:56 Let's go get the harness.
00:24:58 You'll see.
00:25:00 [growls softly]
00:25:02 [Heep] Whoa! Hold on now.
00:25:03 Where'd you get that animal,
00:25:06 He was in our garage.
00:25:08 - Ah-ha. Yeah.
00:25:10 Look at the size of him.
00:25:11 Shh!
00:25:15 So you say you found him?
00:25:17 Well, he looks wild to me.
00:25:21 - Well, he's not.
00:25:23 We found that animal not
00:25:28 He was stalking a moose
00:25:31 We caught him, put a rope on
00:25:35 That's right.
00:25:39 Right.
00:25:41 That's right.
00:25:43 - He's ours.
00:25:45 Something I can
00:25:47 We were just telling
00:25:49 ...thanks for finding
00:25:52 What are you
00:25:54 [Heep] We found
00:25:56 Put a rope on it. Ready to
00:25:58 Any proof of that?
00:26:01 Sure.
00:26:03 That's right.
00:26:05 That's not good enough, Heep.
00:26:08 Mind if I ask what
00:26:13 Ah, sure. We just come down
00:26:16 Oh, that's...
00:26:17 ...that's two doors down.
00:26:20 So it is.
00:26:25 We'll be saying, "Good day",
00:26:33 [truck doors open, close]
00:26:36 [engine starts]
00:26:38 You're not going to let
00:26:41 No, no, no, no.
00:26:44 [wind blowing]
00:26:48 [water flowing]
00:27:03 [Ryan] Grandpa.
00:27:04 I want to find out
00:27:07 "Buck was put on a ship and
00:27:12 - At the end of his journey...
00:27:14 ...he found himself in the
00:27:21 It was a land of
00:27:24 And the newest for him
00:27:28 It wasn't like anything
00:27:31 But...
00:27:33 ...there was
00:27:36 Buck was strapped into a harness
00:27:38 such as he'd seen
00:27:52 Buck learned to run as a team.
00:27:54 Slowly came to accept
00:27:58 At night, since the men wouldn't
00:28:03 he had to learn
00:28:05 how a Yukon dog prepares
00:28:08 its own cozy bed."
00:29:03 Oh, morning, Bill.
00:29:07 Always happy to see you, Rene.
00:29:10 Um... Heep here says
00:29:14 Well, I don't know about that.
00:29:18 Dr. Spencer said
00:29:21 My granddaughter pretty much
00:29:24 [Heep] Look, it's a wolf.
00:29:25 Bill, that ain't no pet
00:29:27 I'm not that little
00:29:29 [clears throat]
00:29:30 Shh! Ryan.
00:29:32 You better teach that little
00:29:38 I just want to thank you.
00:29:40 Thank you for taking care
00:29:42 We'll have him back now.
00:29:43 I would need some proof of that.
00:29:45 What kind of proof you want?
00:29:47 Now I want...
00:29:49 [barks]
00:29:52 He's got spirit and that's
00:29:55 Anyway, he takes to the boy
00:30:02 [whimpers]
00:30:04 [smirks]
00:30:06 [Heep] He bonds with the boy.
00:30:09 Is that the kind of proof
00:30:12 Well, I'm not a judge.
00:30:14 The legal thing to do would be
00:30:17 until the matter
00:30:19 No way.
00:30:20 First of all, this girl
00:30:23 Second, I have the best
00:30:26 and that'd be a fittin' place
00:30:28 I bet you're not that good.
00:30:31 [laughs]
00:30:32 If you don't think so,
00:30:34 - What?
00:30:36 Why don't you two have
00:30:41 - What kind of race?
00:30:44 of the Race to the Sky course?
00:30:46 That's a good couple miles.
00:30:49 - What do you say, Jack?
00:30:51 Is it OK if Buck
00:30:52 [scoffs, laughs]
00:30:54 Oh! It'd take five months
00:30:58 Besides, take someone
00:31:01 ...Jack Ferguson.
00:31:02 [both laugh]
00:31:05 Ferguson. [laughs]
00:31:08 We'll do it.
00:31:11 - If you're not too scared.
00:31:13 The winner of the race
00:31:17 - [barks]
00:31:19 - [barks]
00:31:22 - [whines]
00:31:24 Move your butt.
00:31:28 - [Heep mutters]
00:31:33 Where you think
00:31:34 Get in the back.
00:31:35 What for?
00:31:37 'Cause I don't want that
00:31:39 Get in the back!
00:31:41 But, Pa, it's freezing.
00:31:42 It's fine with me.
00:31:46 [sighs]
00:31:52 [howling]
00:31:56 [howling]
00:32:02 Ah...
00:32:04 [howling]
00:32:07 [Jack] If you want the dogs to
00:32:09 If you want them to go right
00:32:11 If you want them to go left
00:32:12 - How do you say, "Whoa?"
00:32:15 - When do you say, "Mush?"
00:32:21 [chuckles]
00:32:22 - [Ryan] You better run.
00:32:24 - [Ryan] Gotcha!
00:32:26 [grunts]
00:32:31 [both laughing]
00:32:39 [Jack] Watch it there.
00:32:41 [Ryan] Leave me alone!
00:32:44 - [Ryan] Hey!
00:33:02 [Grandpa] "In time,
00:33:06 His sight and scent
00:33:08 - [dogs howling]
00:33:11 became alive again.
00:33:13 He was growing at home
00:33:17 And Buck knew that his life...
00:33:19 - [howling]
00:33:24 Do you think we
00:33:26 We have to if
00:33:29 Ry...
00:33:31 You know that's up to
00:33:34 Even if you win the race,
00:33:38 It may be up to Buck.
00:33:41 Anyway, we're gonna win.
00:33:46 - [pants]
00:33:48 A sled dog has to get along
00:33:51 [dogs barking]
00:33:53 See him? Huh?
00:33:57 [whimpers]
00:34:00 It's Buck, OK?
00:34:02 Gotta listen to him.
00:34:06 [Jack] Hike!
00:34:09 - I said, "Hike!"
00:34:11 - [Ryan] Way to go, Buck!
00:34:14 Well, looks like
00:34:19 They're really running.
00:34:38 We just might have
00:34:40 Only for the race.
00:34:41 Don't forget,
00:34:44 [Jack] Uh-oh. It's Tracy.
00:34:45 She's the prettiest girl
00:34:47 She takes piano lessons
00:34:50 Hi, Jack.
00:34:52 Hi, Tracy.
00:34:54 We're just training this canine.
00:34:59 It looks like you have
00:35:01 It's a new leash.
00:35:04 - Good luck with your dog.
00:35:10 Do you always act
00:35:12 Weird?
00:35:14 - She likes you.
00:35:18 [Grandpa] Hey, Ry.
00:35:20 I've gotta pick up
00:35:22 How about I drop you off
00:35:25 [Ryan] Grandpa, I've already
00:35:28 [Grandpa] Oh, no, you haven't.
00:35:30 [country music plays]
00:36:09 [Ryan] I need a bunch more
00:36:12 I don't blame you.
00:36:14 It's delicious.
00:36:33 [man] Hey!
00:36:36 Why are you tracking me?
00:36:52 What are you doing?
00:36:54 A lot of this stuff
00:36:56 I never really
00:36:58 You know what I really need?
00:36:59 A pair of McHenry waterproof
00:37:03 You aren't afraid
00:37:06 I can't train Buck
00:37:08 OK. Well, we'll see if we can't
00:37:12 Hey! It's story time.
00:37:16 [Grandpa] "Over
00:37:18 Buck and the dog team
00:37:23 in the coldest weather
00:37:35 When they arrived at Skagway
00:37:40 Fresh dogs were called
00:37:43 And the tired out dogs
00:37:45 Buck's team was purchased
00:37:48 There was Charles, who grew
00:37:53 His wife Mercedes, who has never
00:37:57 And Mercedes' brother Hal
00:38:01 who played cards for a living.
00:38:03 None of them had the slightest
00:38:06 But they came to Alaska,
00:38:09 expecting to pick up
00:38:12 [swishes]
00:38:13 ...right off the ground.
00:38:16 Buck was unhappy working
00:38:20 They knew nothing about dogs
00:38:22 and even less
00:38:25 They worked the dogs to the
00:38:28 when they were still 100 miles
00:38:32 [whimpering]
00:38:36 When the dogs stopped pulling,
00:38:41 Luckily, they came upon a camp
00:38:43 of a prospector
00:38:46 [dogs barking]
00:38:50 Thornton was a strong man.
00:38:53 But even he was nearly brought
00:38:57 [dogs barking]
00:38:59 [dogs whining]
00:39:01 He roared at Hal:
00:39:02 'If you beat that dog again
00:39:05 Thornton cut Buck loose
00:39:08 Terrified,
00:39:10 Hal, Charles and Mercedes pushed
00:39:14 and proceeded down the trail.
00:39:19 Thornton warned them
00:39:23 because the ice on the river
00:39:28 But they ignored him.
00:39:33 And they were never seen again."
00:39:37 Did Buck finally find the human
00:39:40 You don't want me to ruin
00:39:44 Hey, Grandpa.
00:39:45 What's the deal with that scary
00:39:47 Hatcher?
00:39:52 Lives in a cabin up on the
00:39:55 Some say he's an escaped
00:39:59 They say he catches rabbits
00:40:03 and eats them raw.
00:40:05 When there aren't any rabbits,
00:40:10 [chuckles]
00:40:12 Every town needs some character
00:40:17 Far as I know...
00:40:18 ...Hatcher never
00:40:29 [whining]
00:40:33 [Ryan] What's wrong?
00:40:35 Aren't you hungry?
00:41:02 Good morning, Jolene.
00:41:03 Is it?
00:41:05 Go tell that
00:41:07 If you can find them.
00:41:09 I'm not sure I follow.
00:41:11 Two of my chickens
00:41:13 There are feathers
00:41:14 And you suspect foul play.
00:41:20 - How can I help you?
00:41:22 - you can buy me two chickens.
00:41:24 I am sure it is that animal
00:41:28 [Grandpa] He hasn't been
00:41:30 - [Jolene] He's a menace.
00:41:32 Child, I have seen you
00:41:35 He ate two of my chickens.
00:41:37 No he didn't. He stays
00:41:39 He's a good wolf.
00:41:41 Dog.
00:41:43 [Jolene] All I can say is
00:41:44 any more of my chickens
00:41:46 and I will have
00:41:48 have him take that animal
00:41:52 Don't worry, Jolene. We'll make
00:42:01 From now on, we'll have
00:42:04 I don't suppose
00:42:05 Who cares about some
00:42:07 Hold it right there,
00:42:09 Maybe it's time to take Buck
00:42:11 Maybe that would be
00:42:13 He's going to win that race and
00:42:16 And mom and dad
00:42:17 and Brittney and Chloe
00:42:19 Is that all you want him for?
00:42:24 No. He's my friend.
00:42:28 [Heep] Get a move on, boy.
00:42:31 The dogs haven't been
00:42:34 I think maybe it's the cheap
00:42:38 They need meat.
00:42:41 I... I wouldn't mind some,
00:42:44 [country music plays
00:42:48 Can I buy a pair of gloves
00:42:51 My hands is froze.
00:42:52 You lost the pair
00:42:54 Why am I gonna waste money
00:42:56 You're just gonna lose
00:43:04 You think our dogs
00:43:07 [sighs]
00:43:08 It ain't about the dogs,
00:43:10 It's how much brains
00:43:13 You think I got more brains
00:43:18 Wouldn't bet the truck on it.
00:43:20 [Heep] Ah, it don't matter.
00:43:21 I got enough brains
00:43:23 Close up the gate, let's go.
00:43:25 [tires screeching]
00:43:29 Do you think I'll be able
00:43:32 I don't know, Ry.
00:43:33 I'm not sure how much
00:43:36 If mom and dad
00:43:38 I want you to keep him.
00:43:40 Let's just worry about
00:43:42 [barking]
00:43:43 Ozz is pretty good on a sled.
00:43:45 Especially if he doesn't
00:43:46 Why does a jerk like
00:43:50 I'm not sure I can beat him.
00:43:54 I'm not sure at all.
00:43:55 As Grandma used to say:
00:43:57 "Bless this food
00:44:01 Amen.
00:44:04 OK, this is the first time
00:44:08 so tell me the truth.
00:44:15 [grunts]
00:44:18 - Do you like it?
00:44:20 We were almost out of regular
00:44:23 Just the thing.
00:44:24 [phone ringing]
00:44:29 Hello.
00:44:32 [Grandpa] Yes, she's right here.
00:44:34 It's your mother.
00:44:38 Hi, Mom.
00:44:40 I have a surprise for you.
00:44:43 Love you.
00:44:45 - [whispers]
00:44:50 Ryan, go make sure
00:44:56 Hi, Paula.
00:44:57 Yeah, she's having a great time.
00:45:00 Learning dog sledding,
00:45:03 [chuckles] We're talking
00:45:05 [Grandpa] Listen, Paula, I don't
00:45:09 Ryan has gotten it into her
00:45:15 It's a large dog, part wolf.
00:45:17 Showed up as a stray
00:45:20 Yes, well,
00:45:23 Yeah, well, I can't see it
00:45:26 I'll keep you posted.
00:45:28 [barks, howls]
00:45:30 You have to behave
00:45:34 And you won't be able
00:45:37 [whimpers]
00:45:38 I hope you didn't
00:45:41 But if you did, I know you
00:45:44 [barks]
00:45:46 This should keep you
00:45:49 Good night, Buck.
00:45:56 [Grandpa] "Buck's wounds healed.
00:45:59 His muscles swelled out,
00:46:00 and the life came back
00:46:03 He grew quickly
00:46:07 After all,
00:46:11 Buck knew no greater joy than
00:46:17 But in spite of this great love,
00:46:19 the primitive nature
00:46:21 had aroused in Buck remained.
00:46:24 There was something in the
00:46:28 and he felt compelled to answer.
00:46:31 He took to wandering
00:46:35 but the love for John Thornton
00:46:39 At least, for now.
00:46:43 Why he did this,
00:46:45 - Nor did he wonder.
00:46:47 But the love for John Thornton
00:46:51 [whines]
00:47:05 Thanks, Grandpa.
00:47:09 - Grandpa?
00:47:11 Am I a tomboy?
00:47:12 Uh, that's a silly word.
00:47:14 I'm not sure what it means,
00:47:18 I'm never going to be like
00:47:23 Do you think your mother
00:47:27 No way!
00:47:28 Let me show you something.
00:47:34 That's your mother.
00:47:35 She used to play softball?
00:47:37 No. Baseball!
00:47:39 [swishes] Fast pitch!
00:47:41 She used to beg me
00:47:44 I was afraid she'd get hurt,
00:47:47 Turned out to be the best
00:47:50 And on top of that,
00:47:56 Grandpa, Jack says that Buck is
00:48:00 - Oh?
00:48:02 up to Cold Creek Trail.
00:48:04 He said I can ride
00:48:06 [grunts]
00:48:07 I told him you would say OK,
00:48:10 I'm not sure I trust Buck.
00:48:13 And that's unfamiliar
00:48:15 Not to Jack.
00:48:17 Please?
00:48:18 You let Mom play baseball.
00:48:26 I don't want you to go...
00:48:29 ...any further than a mile.
00:48:32 That way you can walk back
00:48:35 But that's not
00:48:37 The trails are covered
00:48:40 It would be easy to get lost.
00:48:43 I know Jack is a good boy,
00:48:45 but your parents trust me
00:48:48 But a mile?
00:48:50 Promise me...
00:48:52 ...you'll stay close.
00:48:55 I promise.
00:49:01 All right. You ready?
00:49:03 Remember to keep your
00:49:05 Let's show these other guys
00:49:08 OK?
00:49:14 All right.
00:49:16 Ready to go?
00:49:17 Try and stop us.
00:49:18 We might make it all
00:49:21 I was about to tell you, Jack.
00:49:23 I promised Grandpa
00:49:26 It's your first time out.
00:49:27 If you're taking Buttercup,
00:49:31 Buttercup?
00:49:33 Sure, no problem, Mr. Hale.
00:49:34 - OK.
00:49:36 We'll just have to make the run
00:49:38 Can you pull the hook
00:49:41 All right.
00:49:44 You're free to go.
00:49:45 - Hike! Hike!
00:49:48 [Ryan] Go Buck!
00:49:50 [chuckles]
00:50:02 [panting]
00:50:47 They're really running.
00:50:50 Maybe I can talk Grandpa into
00:50:53 [barking]
00:51:03 Whoa, whoa!
00:51:05 [Jack] Buck! Whoa!
00:51:10 Buck! Whoa! Whoa!
00:51:12 - Whoa! Buck, whoa!
00:51:16 [Jack] Buck, Ranger,
00:51:18 [screaming]
00:51:25 - [panting]
00:51:30 [dogs whimpering]
00:51:32 Are you OK?
00:51:33 I think so.
00:51:35 Are you?
00:51:37 I twisted my ankle.
00:51:39 [Jack] Oh, no! It's gonna
00:51:50 Buck, come here.
00:51:53 I need you to listen to me, OK?
00:51:54 I don't know what you were
00:51:57 but I need you to listen,
00:51:59 I'm gonna unhook your harness,
00:52:02 [Jack] Stay!
00:52:08 - [barks]
00:52:10 Buck! Come back!
00:52:12 - [barking]
00:52:21 - Where do you think he went?
00:52:25 He'll come back.
00:52:29 He'll come back, won't he?
00:52:31 Right now we have
00:52:34 Like, how we're gonna
00:52:37 [sighs] No service.
00:52:39 Should we be worried?
00:52:41 [sighs]
00:52:44 Wouldn't help any.
00:52:45 I mean, your grandpa
00:52:47 He'll come looking
00:52:50 You can't tell him that
00:52:53 Why not?
00:52:54 Because, he'll say
00:52:58 We'll just tell him
00:53:00 That I wanted to keep going.
00:53:08 It's cold.
00:53:11 Yeah.
00:53:17 [whimpering]
00:54:08 [barking]
00:54:15 [whimpering]
00:54:16 - [barking]
00:54:18 [barks]
00:54:23 [barking]
00:54:26 Hey, Buck!
00:54:49 [Hatcher] Well, now...
00:54:53 What are you two doing
00:54:56 We were running the sled.
00:54:58 The dogs got carried away.
00:55:00 Your dog found my cabin.
00:55:02 Wouldn't stop barking
00:55:05 [barks]
00:55:08 You OK?
00:55:10 Jack hurt his ankle.
00:55:11 It's just a twist.
00:55:14 We're a little cold,
00:55:18 Well, you better come with me.
00:55:19 It's not far.
00:55:22 We can leave the dogs here
00:55:24 There you go.
00:55:26 Sheriff, let Bill Hale know
00:55:30 and the Ferguson boy
00:55:32 Had a little sledding accident
00:55:36 As soon as they warm up, I'll
00:55:39 [Rene]
00:55:41 He's going to be
00:55:42 He's been calling for
00:55:46 Be sure to let him know that
00:55:49 I'll see you in a while.
00:55:52 [sighs]
00:55:55 What do you do up here?
00:55:58 I live.
00:56:01 Is that your dog?
00:56:07 Kingo.
00:56:09 Passed away last fall.
00:56:12 Had more sense than
00:56:16 Good companion.
00:56:19 And the best
00:56:23 You must really miss him.
00:56:26 Like I'd miss an arm.
00:56:32 Good thing it didn't
00:56:35 I wasn't afraid.
00:56:36 Anyway, you'll see your
00:56:39 - Now I'm afraid.
00:56:44 [Grandpa] You promised.
00:56:46 Grandpa, I...
00:56:48 You went directly
00:56:50 And more importantly...
00:56:52 - ...my orders.
00:56:54 You promised me and
00:56:57 What's a promise worth,
00:56:59 You, at least, are just a child,
00:57:02 It's my fault, Grandpa,
00:57:05 I am the one who said
00:57:07 but the dogs took off.
00:57:09 Buck didn't want to stop.
00:57:10 I had a feeling that animal
00:57:13 Buck is not trouble.
00:57:15 - Buck saved our lives.
00:57:19 I noticed you've fallen very far
00:57:22 I'm disappointed.
00:57:29 Grandpa...
00:57:30 ...are you going
00:57:33 Not tonight.
00:57:35 You need to think about
00:57:39 I think we can forget about you
00:57:42 - But Grandpa!
00:58:11 [doorbell rings]
00:58:24 Brought you some doughnuts.
00:58:28 I want to apologize
00:58:30 I should have known better.
00:58:32 I am just glad you both
00:58:36 You know what?
00:58:40 [scoffs]
00:58:41 [Jack] I'm just not
00:58:43 - [Grandpa] I don't know, Jack.
00:58:48 Anyway... Take care.
00:59:14 Whatcha doing?
00:59:17 I have to write a paper
00:59:19 [sighs]
00:59:31 [Grandpa] Finish your homework?
00:59:32 I even did the extra credit.
00:59:35 My goodness.
00:59:37 I'm proud of you.
00:59:41 Ry...
00:59:43 You remember your grandma?
00:59:45 She was really nice.
00:59:49 You know she left me
00:59:51 One day she was down at
00:59:55 and she had a heart attack
00:59:57 and died before they could
01:00:02 No one called me at first,
01:00:06 I waited for her to come home.
01:00:10 I just stared at the door...
01:00:12 ...waiting.
01:00:16 So...
01:00:18 You understand why I was upset
01:00:21 when you didn't come back
01:00:23 I was scared that you
01:00:27 I'm sorry, Grandpa.
01:00:32 [howling]
01:00:36 Shall I read the rest of
01:00:45 When we last left off...
01:00:47 "Buck was happy living in
01:00:51 To Buck, it was
01:00:55 Hunting, fishing, and wandering
01:00:59 with his new master.
01:01:01 But the call still sounded
01:01:05 It filled Buck with great unrest
01:01:09 for what he did now know.
01:01:11 Buck began staying away
01:01:16 Old memories were coming upon
01:01:20 He found an old moose,
01:01:22 and for three days
01:01:26 until the moose tired
01:01:31 - He killed a moose?
01:01:36 "When Buck returned
01:01:40 who had robbed Thornton
01:01:43 Buck hurled himself
01:01:46 and they fled terrified
01:01:50 Buck found that
01:01:55 ...was dead."
01:01:57 [whimpering]
01:02:01 I don't like this book anymore.
01:02:03 I don't want to read
01:02:04 You won't understand the story
01:02:07 That's OK.
01:02:42 Getting ready for the big race?
01:02:44 Called it off.
01:02:47 Why?
01:02:48 Probably won't win anyway.
01:02:51 How do you know
01:02:54 I've been telling everybody
01:02:59 I want to be able to say I knew
01:03:02 You've been talking about me?
01:03:07 [man] Hey Jack, good luck
01:03:13 I got to get back to work.
01:03:23 [owl hooting]
01:03:27 [howling]
01:03:36 [clock bell chiming]
01:04:12 [Ryan] This is the story
01:04:16 Before I came here,
01:04:21 Let me tell you about Jack.
01:04:23 He is the nicest boy
01:04:26 and he has taught me
01:04:29 I almost forgot to tell you
01:04:32 My Grandpa.
01:04:34 He knows everything
01:04:36 even though sometimes
01:04:38 [chuckles]
01:04:40 He used to be married,
01:04:43 I really miss her,
01:04:47 I bet Grandpa
01:04:50 But he's a grown-up,
01:04:53 If you ask me,
01:04:56 watching Grandpa
01:04:59 even though he doesn't see her.
01:05:01 But I think it's true.
01:05:03 The end.
01:05:09 [shuddering]
01:06:31 What's up, Jack?
01:06:32 I've decided
01:06:34 I mean, who says
01:06:36 - [chuckles]
01:06:39 I'm gonna win!
01:06:40 [Grandpa]
01:06:42 Well, what are you waiting for?
01:06:45 - Go on!
01:06:47 - Yeah!
01:06:50 [Ryan] Come on Jack, we've only
01:07:24 [snoring]
01:07:33 - [air horn blows]
01:07:42 [chuckling]
01:07:44 Oh, Bill.
01:07:49 Hey, Sparks.
01:07:53 How's he doing?
01:07:54 [Heep] How are my
01:07:56 How's my lead dog?
01:07:58 Yes, good boy.
01:08:00 If you don't win, you're gonna
01:08:04 You know you
01:08:05 Why don't you let Buck decide?
01:08:08 He's too much wolf
01:08:10 One of these days
01:08:12 Oh, yes he is.
01:08:14 You're gonna be nothing
01:08:18 - [yelling]
01:08:21 [chuckles]
01:08:23 I'm just kidding.
01:08:26 [barking]
01:08:27 You have a good race.
01:08:30 I'll be waiting for you
01:08:31 And you will be coming
01:08:39 It's time to start.
01:08:42 Let's make this a nice,
01:08:47 - Let's have some fun.
01:08:48 [engine starts]
01:08:53 You know exactly
01:08:55 I put them dog treats
01:08:58 If ol' Jack gets too close
01:09:02 His dogs will give up
01:09:04 Jack, are you sure
01:09:07 It's extra weight
01:09:09 I know, but we're a team.
01:09:12 All right, wear this...
01:09:15 ...for good luck.
01:09:17 Besides, it'll
01:09:20 How do I look?
01:09:21 Ha! You look like a winner!
01:09:24 You don't win this race,
01:09:25 don't bother coming home.
01:09:27 Yeah, yeah.
01:09:29 - Good luck kids.
01:09:32 I iced his snow hook,
01:09:35 Yeah, yeah.

01:12:40 Let them run!
01:12:42 Come on, Jack!
01:12:50 Easy now!
01:12:51 Stay clear of Heep's team.
01:12:54 Oh, no!
01:12:55 [Jack] Come on, guys!
01:12:58 - We got him! We got him!
01:13:00 Wait till you get a clear pass.
01:13:03 I think Jack knows
01:13:05 I believe he does.
01:13:07 And so does
01:13:09 Hike, hike!
01:13:20 - Yay!
01:13:21 [cheering]

01:14:01 [Tracy] Whoo!
01:14:04 - [Tracy] Way to go!
01:14:07 What's the matter with you?
01:14:09 I told you to ice him!
01:14:11 [cheering]
01:14:15 Dog gone it!
01:14:23 You ran a good race.
01:14:24 You did too, Ozz.
01:14:27 Here...
01:14:30 ...for your dogs.
01:14:32 I'm sorry about everything.
01:14:34 Maybe I'll see you guys
01:14:37 I graduate next year and
01:14:40 Haven't told my pa yet.
01:14:44 Thanks.
01:14:49 Congratulations.
01:14:54 [Heep] Sheriff!
01:14:56 Sheriff, that was not
01:14:58 They had two mushers.
01:15:00 - They ought to be disqualified.
01:15:04 Wasn't fair to run
01:15:06 - Heep, shut your trap.
01:15:11 That wasn't a fair race
01:15:17 Who wants that damn
01:15:21 [Ryan] Buck, stop!
01:15:24 Get him off me!
01:15:31 You all saw that!
01:15:38 Well, you better put him down.
01:15:40 I won't press charges.
01:15:44 I'll pull stakes on this
01:15:46 [growls]
01:15:48 Go some place where
01:15:53 [barks]
01:15:54 Stupid little town.
01:15:57 - I'm going north.
01:16:00 But I might be back.
01:16:05 [barking]
01:16:06 Bill, it looks like there's
01:16:11 I can't really allow him
01:16:18 I'll take him back to Boston.
01:16:23 I spoke with your
01:16:26 and I told them
01:16:28 You can't bring a wolf
01:16:35 OK?
01:16:39 When I tied him up with
01:16:41 And I don't think it was
01:16:44 I think he ate
01:16:48 I meant to tell you but I didn't
01:16:52 I guess he's not
01:16:53 - [whimpers]
01:16:56 He's a wolf.
01:16:57 He's a great wolf,
01:17:00 He just has to be
01:17:04 Can he go back to the woods?
01:17:06 No, he can't do that.
01:17:08 [Rene] He's too used to
01:17:10 He'd just come back down again.
01:17:16 I really don't have any choice.
01:17:20 I'm gonna have to
01:17:28 Why don't you
01:17:31 - [sobbing]
01:17:43 [Rene] Ry? Honey?
01:17:49 OK.
01:17:50 You're a brave girl.
01:17:57 [sniffs, sobbing]
01:18:02 No!
01:18:05 [Ryan] I won't let you take him!
01:18:08 You can't take Buck
01:18:15 No!
01:18:19 Buck!
01:18:22 - I love you, Buck.
01:18:29 Be useful to me.
01:18:35 [chuckling]
01:18:38 Well, he seems to like you.
01:18:43 Yeah.
01:18:46 Sheriff?
01:18:52 Well, as long as he
01:18:56 ...I have no objection.
01:19:01 I think he'll like it up there.
01:19:04 I think he'll like it just fine.
01:19:10 One thing, though...
01:19:13 We'll have to get him
01:19:15 [laughing]
01:19:33 [Grandpa]
01:19:36 The last tie was broken.
01:19:38 The claims of man
01:19:41 But the natives of these lands
01:19:46 It is a story of a ghost dog
01:19:48 that runs at the head
01:19:51 They are afraid
01:19:55 for it has a cunning
01:19:57 Stealing from their camps,
01:19:59 robbing their traps and defying
01:20:03 They say he is a great,
01:20:08 Unlike all other wolves.
01:20:10 He sings the song
01:20:14 [howling]
01:20:17 ...which is the song
01:20:19 [barks]
01:20:48 - Thanks, Rene.
01:20:51 - All right.
01:20:53 [birds chirping]
01:21:25 [whimpering]
01:21:31 Oh, my gosh! For me?
01:21:34 I know she's a little small.
01:21:35 She's perfect.
01:21:37 What do you suppose Brittney
01:21:40 - Who cares what they think.
01:21:44 I have the perfect name
01:21:46 Oh?
01:21:48 - Buttercup.
01:21:55 [Ryan] This was
01:21:57 I love you, Grandpa.
01:21:59 [Grandpa] I love you, too.
01:22:03 Heel. Heel!
01:22:08 Good boy.

01:22:31 That's a good boy.
