Buck is a not so large dog, with strong muscles and long hair. He lives in a town called Santa Clara Valley, the year is 1897. In that town, he stays in a place called Judge Miller’s place. The house he lives in is hidden among trees, back from the road. The house’s driveway is gravel. And here, is where Buck was born, and had been living for four years of his life. But Buck isn’t a house, or kennel-dog, the whole realm was his. Buck plunged into the swimming take, went hunting with the Judge’s sons, or took the Judge’s daughters on long night, or early morning walks, and on wintery nights, he lays by the fire at the Judge’s feet, Buck also carries the Judge’s grandsons on his back, and rolls around with them in the grass, and guards their footsteps when they go on wild adventures.

I’m going to explain some things Buck does in the book The Call of the Wild.
Buck is kidnapped by someone called Manuel. He got put into a cage, and choked with a rope,and beat with a club. Buck didn’t know that people we’re looking for strong dogs to pull a sled, but that’s what Buck ended up doing. He has to learn to survive, and he has to get trained to pull the sled. Buck also has to adapt to the dogs that are being mean to him, for example, they kicked Buck out of the tent, so he had to find a warm place to sleep outside, which was hard for Buck. He also has to get used too any cold weather condition because he’s pulling a sled in the snow all the time. Another thing he has learned to do is, when ice gets between his toes, he knows how to bite it out. Those are some of the things Buck has
done.
