Old Yeller was based on a Deishler family dog named 'Rattler' and unlike Old Yeller, Rattler was a dark colored Border Collie. Old Yeller, a stray dog adopted by the boy, helps in the formidable task of protecting the family on the Texas Ranch.

Set in the Texas Hill Country in the 1860s just after the American Civil War, the story is about the 14-year-old boy Travis Coates (played by Tommy Kirk in the film) left in charge of the household while his father is away. Old Yeller was the novel that Gipson considered his best work. Old Yeller has two sequels – Savage Sam (1962), which also became a Walt Disney film in 1963, and Little Arliss, published posthumously in 1978. His novel Old Yeller won the Newbery honor, and was adapted into a 1957 Walt Disney Studios film. Fred Gipson visiting family in Sand Springs Oklahoma in 1959
