In this film adaptation of Jack London's tale of searching for gold in Alaska, Jack Thornton (Clark Gable) plans to head to Alaska for the gold rush, but he loses his money in a poker game. He buys a Saint Bernard named "Buck" from cruel owner Smith (Frank Conroy) and trains Buck as a sled dog. Later, an angry Smith bets Jack $1,000 that Buck can't pull a sled. Buck accomplishes the feat, and Jack wins the money he needs for the Alaska trip. With his friend Shorty (Jack Oakie), Jack sets out for Alaska where he meets Claire (Loretta Young) whose prospector husband (Reginald Owen) is missing, and Jack's adventures continue.
