The only major difference between the book and the film is that in the book, Mrs. Coates convinces Travis to shoot Old Yeller shortly after the dog fights the wolf and is exposed to rabies (during the incubation period), whereas in the film, Travis insists on waiting until Old Yeller develops symptoms before killing him. In the book Travis and Yeller had not fully recovered from the wounds they received from the hogs. Mrs. Coates and Bud Searcy's daughter Lisbeth had gone to burn the cow carcass and return being chased by the rabid wolf which is kept at bay by Yeller. Travis shoots the wolf as it is about to kill Yeller but in a cruel twist of fate is then forced to kill Yeller because he has been exposed to rabies will eventually become a deadly threat to the family. There is also the minor difference in that Old Yeller is bob-tailed in the book. Whereas, in the movie, he has a long tail that arches over his back (similar to the tails of Arctic sled dogs). Another major difference is that Old Yeller appears as a Lab/Mastiff mix, while in the book he is implied to be a Black Mouth Cur.
Bud is 10 years old in the book "Bud, Not Buddy" by Christopher Paul Curtis.
He's angry at him because Bud Searcy is always bothering folks, and on the day Bud Searcy came over after Travis got scratched by the hogs, Travis knew he'd be a bother to his Mama, because even though he talked about helping the women and children in Salt Licks while the men were gone, he'd never offer to chop wood or gather in a corn crop. And all he'd do was sit under the dog run all day, chewing tobacco and spitting juice all over the place, and, he'd expect Travis's Mama to cook him a good supper if he stayed that long. His Mama had ten times too much to do.
