  5. Chapter 4 • Chapter 4 mostly takes place while the dogs are moving on the trail. • Buck complains and wants to be the lead dog. • A new owner that delivers mail takes them back to Dawson where the setting is the same, and then they are sold to Hal, Mercedes, and Charles.

Which is neat and organized because John is experienced. • Hal continues to beat the dogs, until Buck drops and John Thornton comes and rescues him.

  7. Chapter 6 • At one point, Buck and Thornton are in a bar in Dawson that is dark and grungy. Buck cuts a mans’ throat open. • At another point in time, Thornton is thrown out of a boat into the river Moose Hide Creek. The water is cold and dark. Buck soon jumps in and saves him. • In winter the duo go to a convention. Buck wins a bet for John because Buck pulls a sled with 1,000 pounds .
