I believe that dog was a Rough-coated Collie. I would not be surprised to find out that the dog was trained by Rudd Weatherwax, the man that trained all the Lassies.
Many movie information sites and books list "Lassie" in the cast of the classic John Wayne Western Hondo. Close, but not true, according to a correspondent who knows the Weatherwax family: the collies in Hondo and the later Wayne Western Big Jake were trained by the Weatherwax kennels and were Lassie siblings and children, but were not played by Lassie himself. There is a story, very probably apocryphal, that says during the filming of Hondo Wayne won Lassie away from Rudd Weatherwax in a very "highly lubricated" after-shooting-hours poker game, then "gave the dog back" in the morning.

How did John Wayne learn to act?
Like every other actor in early Hollywood there was no actors studios and places to study the art of acting. They learned as they went. But I always feel an actor is born not made. You either have the talent or you don't.
Why did John Wayne have just one long bullet in the back of his gun belt?
The cartridge in the middle of John Wayne's belt was a .45-70. Early in the Duke's career he often worked on movies with old cowboys who were actually around when the west was still wild. One of them told Wayne that many of the old timers kept a larger .45-70 round in the middle of their gun belt so they would know when they had used up half of their regular bullets. John liked the idea and added that touch to his screen persona.
That would let him know when he had only six rounds left.
