It's early morning two days before Christmas of 1937 and ten year old Ralph has just finished gathering eggs. He sees black smoke rising up by the highway a half mile north of their farm in north central Kansas, where he lives with his mother and step-father. The smoke is from a terrible traffic accident and fire. Ralph finds the lone survivor, a Samoyed dog, that was thrown clear, but injured. The collar tag identifies the dog as Snow. Ralph cares for him. The extended family gathers for Christmas Dinner at Grandma's house in town and it is learned that Uncle Ike has been taken to the hospital with a heart seizure, leaving Aunt Lulu to tend the sixty steers and other livestock on their hill ranch north of town alone. Ralph and his disreputable cousin Harold are selected to help Lulu. Snow is a valuable stud show dog, and the estate of the accident victims wanted him. Ralph is appointed guardian of Snow until the kennel master came to claim him. Snow goes to Lulu's ranch with Ralph. Cousin Howard goes to town and is stranded by the big blizzard. Ralph and Lulu must fend for themselves and the livestock. Ralph and Snow find the lone stray trapped by a snowdrift in a tree well. On a return trip with hay for the stray, Ralph and Snow and the stray are attacked by a pack of vicious hungry wild dogs. Exhausted, Ralph collapses in the driving snow just yards from Lulu's cabin door...
