The film starts with a wealthy oil tycoon, Mark Wilson (Paige), who is unhappy with his isolated and lonely life. Wanting to escape from the city and find peace, he moves into his country home with his son, Charles (Donaldson). There, Charles finds a magnificent and wild stallion nearby, and immediately establishes a bond with the animal. Despite his father's warnings, Charles spends most of his time with the stallion, whom he names Rusty.

But the bond between the boy and the horse is tested when a group of horse rustlers steal Rusty and several other valuable horses from Mark's ranch. Devastated by the loss of his beloved friend, Charles takes it upon himself to find Rusty and bring him home.

With the help of a rancher's daughter, who has a personal interest in defeating the horse rustlers, Charles sets out on an adventure to find Rusty. They face many dangers and setbacks along the way, including a dangerous river crossing where they have to use all their wits to save themselves and the horses. But even as the journey becomes more difficult, the love and loyalty between Charles and Rusty only grows stronger.
