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).
