Transcript
The challenge of the Yukon! It's King, swiftest, strongest lead dog of the North Country, blazing the trail for Sergeant Preston of the North-West Monard Police in his relentless pursuit of lawbreakers. Un-King! Un-Husky! Gold. Gold discovered in the Yukon, a stampede to the Klondike in the greedy race for riches.
Now back to the days of the Gold Rush, when Sergeant Preston and his wonder dog king battled through storm and snow to preserve law and order as they met the challenge of the Yukon. Old Bill Craig smiled with satisfaction as he walked to his dog kennels behind his cabin with Sergeant Preston of the Northwest mounted police.
Bill's reputation for raising the finest Malamute dogs in the Northwest Territory Was one of the reasons the Mountain never failed to visit him when he was in Bill's vicinity. Bill chuckled as he opened the shed door.
Wait, did you see this litter of pup, Sergeant? She sure did herself proud. She was one of your best, isn't she? Your darn tutensy is! Ain't a finer mally mutant than North Country to my way of thinking.
There they are. Look at them! What a big litter. Yeah, she's got too many of them. That's the trouble. Preach you can't take care of all of them properly. A beautiful pup, Spill. I'll accept this for a little fella.
Yeah. Yeah, he's the weakest one in the lot. He ain't got a chance with all them brothers and sisters. Looks as if he's going to be the raunt. Guess I'm going to have to destroy him.
Oh, don't do that, Bill. I should have done it when they were born. And I thought I'd wait a few days to see how he'd turn out. It's no use, though. I'm busy getting my team in shape for the dog race two weeks from now, and I ain't got time to take care of him.
