Unlike the source novel, John Thornton has a back story. They wanted Thornton's experience to be similar to Buck's for this film adaptation to show both man and dog finding their strength after overcoming tragedy.
Each sled dog on Buck's team (besides Spitz) was given the personality of one of the dwarfs from the Disney classic Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937): Dolly is Bashful, Pike is Grumpy, Joe is Happy, Billy is Sleepy, Dave is Dopey, Dub is Sneezy, and Sol-Leks is Doc.
Buck is half St. Bernard (giving him size) and half Scotch shepherd (a medium-sized herding dog thought to be the ancestor of the Rough and Smooth Collie). He is described in the original novel as looking like a large wolf, rather than his mixed-breed look in the film. Additionally, none of the sled team look the way they do in the book. In the book, they are all Huskies - in the film, only Spitz is a Husky, and he is the wrong colour (black and white, as opposed to all-white as in the book).
The fully CGI model of Buck is a digital scan of Buckley, a real dog that director Chris Sanders' wife, Jessica Steele-Sanders, adopted as a family pet from an Emporia, Kansas animal shelter during production. Buckley is thought to be a cross between a St. Bernard and a Scotch shepherd (a medium-sized herding dog, similar to a rough collie or to the border collie and Australian shepherd descended from it), the same mixed breed as Buck in Jack London's book (though in the book he is described as looking wolf-like, Buck was based on a mixed-breed dog named "Jack," owned by Jack London's friends Marshall Latham Bond and Louis Witford Bond). At the time, Buck's CG design in the movie was based more on a Bernese mountain dog at the request of one of the producers - but when the producers saw Buckley and learned that he was the same sort of mixed breed as the dog in the book (and the real-life dog upon which Buck was based), it was decided that Buck in the film would be a digital scan of Buckley. This is the first time in "The Call of the Wild"'s film adaptations that Buck has been portrayed as a mixed-breed dog rather than a purebred (he has also been portrayed as a full-blooded St. Bernard, a German shepherd, and a Leonberger).
In honor of author Jack London's love of nature, the making of this film was eco-friendly. There were no single-use plastic bottles, only biodegradable plates and cutlery were used. In addition, leftover food was donated, the crew employed solar-powered generators, and relied on recycled paper.
"[last lines] John Thornton: [narrates] Some say that's the legend. Not so. You see, I knew him once, when he was just a dog at a men side. And even all this land is his, every summer, when he comes down to the valley, he remembers kind hands and old masters... before he went to his own... became his own master... before he heard the call."
"John Thornton: [narrates] There's a place in these mountains where a new breed of timber wolf roams, wiser than men or wolf, because of the dog that runs at the head of a pack. Now... they live without fear, raise their young and flourish."
