The real Jack who is portrayed in the Little House on the Prairie books is a Bulldog. However, Michael Landon, the actor and creator of the Little House on the Prairie television series, met a scruffy actor dog named Barney and instantly fell in love with him.
Jack was Laura Ingalls' scruffy, lovable dog who appeared in almost every episode until he sadly passed in the first episode of season four, Castoffs. He often came with the Ingalls in picnics, and Walnut Grove gatherings. Jack was almost shot by Charles in The Raccoon because he thought Jack was infected with rabies.
However, Jack saved their lives by running to meet Dr. Tann as he rode down the trail past the house, begging him to come in. While the stories told about Jack in Little House on the Prairie are true, in real life, Jack's adventures with the Ingalls family ended as they returned to the Big Woods.
