On the TV show "Gunsmoke," the character Buck was played by several different horses over the course of the series. The exact number of horses that portrayed Buck is not definitively documented, but it is estimated that at least five different horses were used for the role. Each horse was trained for specific stunts and scenes to ensure the safety and success of the filming process.

He rode a number of different horses - Marshal , Faithful Old Buck .
The official website doesn't say anything but "there were several horses," but two of the horses were Marshal and Buck.

No, Matt Dillon's horse was not named Buck. In the television series "Gunsmoke," Matt Dillon rode a horse named Buck. On "Bonanza," the character Ben Cartwright, played by Lorne Greene, had a horse named Buck as well. So while both shows featured a horse named Buck, they were not the same horse and belonged to different characters.

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.
