The very story has majesty and power wafting from it. I do understand greatly that Togo did run very far, and shoudl have recieved more credit,maybe having his body preserved or a statue erected. But though Balto was not the best or the real hero,he did benefit them,at least. I believe his legacy is acceptable. BUT NEVER GO BY THE MOVIE...it is good,but not exactly....correct.Storryseeker,we have something in common,except I am called INSANE wolf girl. Balto would have been a sight to behold.

He is my hero because I am learning disabled and not well like but I am like him and I perserviere, Also he was a dimond in the ruff a hiden promise in one so over looked and sene as a "least favoret dog" but he proved them wrong. My brother is like Togo as he is misbehaved and yet is a natural born leader, at least he uses his energy to create a legend for himself it is hard to explain! You may argue it but many people would suport me if I wqere to say that I may be Baltos number one fan and I am sure he is my Number 1 HERO!

But if your learning about him dont go by the movie or all of this ad. The real hero was Togo, a siberian husky. ON the serum run Togo was 12 years old!!! and ran most of the race, Balto was borrowed close to the end as a relef dog and wasnted wanted to be used as a lead dog but was just hooked on. Togo sire many champion pups, Balto was nutered as a pup (another thing the movie lies about) He MAY have wolf in him(no one knows, another made up part of the movie) but he was also mixed with many other kinds of huskeys. The reason Balto is so famous is cause he crossed the finish line. Then was sold with the team as show off dogs and then put in a musem where he was misstreated (another reason hes now so famous) someone reconised him and started a fund raiser to raise $2000 to buy him and the team which were moved to a zoo where they lived out the remainder of their life, a zoo... Balto died at age 11, a year younger than Togo when togo was in the serum race. togo died age 15 or 16. Balto is a great dog dont get me worng but he wasnt the best. He was known for being a bad leader and hes selfish ways kept him alive not his care for the musher... theres the true story on Balto... Balto was a great dog dont get me wrong.
