He rode a number of different horses - Marshal , Faithful Old Buck .
Buck Taylor
Reports say Dillon's horse, Buck, retired into helping mental patients, learn to ride, until it's death in 1992. The horse was said to 45 years old, subtract that from 1992, you're at 1947. Gunsmokes first aired in 1955...that would have made the horse 8 years old, at the first episode.
Two horses

Marshall Matt Dillon, star of TV's popular Western, Gunsmoke, rode a horse named Buck. Strangely, the horse's name was only mentioned once during Gunsmoke's twenty-season run. Dillon's friend Festus had a mule called Ruth. Evidently there were TWO horses named Buck because some of the Gunsmoke episodes have Marshall Dillon riding a buckskin horse with white stockings and some of the Gunsmoke episodes have Marshall Dillon riding a buckskin horse without any white stockings.
NO. They were similar, but different animals

It seems that the buckskin colored horse that Ben Cartwright rode in Bonanza was the same horse that was used by Marshal Matt Dillon in the series Gunsmoke.
