Answer 2

The harness represents Buck's obedience to serve Thornton.

In "The call of the wild" Thornton saves Buck from being beaten by Hal and it is for that reason that Buck loves his master Thornton. Buck feels devotion for Thornton and he even saves him from drowing in the river. The harness represents this devotion and obedience.
