Nikki: Wild Dog of the North is a 1961 adventure film directed by Jack Couffer and Don Haldane.

The plot, based on the novel Nomads of the North by James Oliver Curwood, centers around the adventures of a malamute dog named Nikki.

In 1899, Nikki and his kind master, Andre Dupas (Jean Coutu), are traveling via canoe through the Canadian Rockies.

When they reach land, they are forced to overcome the instinct that makes them natural enemies and join together in a search for food and shelter.

He steals the bait from traps until he is captured by a vicious trapper named Jacques Lebeau (Émile Genest) and his reluctant Indian companion, Makoki (Uriel Luft).
