In the 1957 Disney film 'Old Yeller', Travis has to shoot Old Yeller because he was infected with rabies and tried to attack his younger brother, Arliss. This is a major turning point in the movie.
Yes. He caught it while fighting a rabid wolf.
The 16 year old boy, Travis, shoots Old Yeller. Travis's dad is on a cattle run throughout most of the story. When Yeller gets bitten defending the family they put him in the corn crib, just to make sure he doesn't have rabies. When it becomes apparent that he does the mother goes to shoot him, but Travis stops her. He says something to the effect of no, ma, he's my dog I'll do it.
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.
