There's been a few versions of "Call of the Wild". ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Call_of_the_Wild).

The best (I think) was the one made in 1972 starring Charlton Heston with a German Shepherd playing "Buck."

In the 1903 book by Jack London, "Buck" was actually a St. Bernard cross who was stolen and taken to the Klondike to work as a sled dog. This is historically accurate as before the first imports of Chukchi dogs from Siberia, most mushers thought that the bigger the sled dog the better it would work. It was only after the importation of the "Siberian Rats" as the Chukchi dogs were known, and their success in the All-Alaskan Sweepstakes race, that people realised what effective sled dogs they were.
