Pit bulls are everything that most Frisbee dogs are not, but that was fine with Roo because part of his mission was to change people's minds about pit bulls. Once Wallace made it home, Roo knew the dog needed a mission, and serendipity led them to the world of competitive dog Frisbee. When Roo learned that Wallace was about to be put down, he and his wife frantically fought to keep Wallace alive until they could adopt him, even though they already had two dogs. A scientist and shelter volunteer, Roo could immediately see that Wallace was something special. Then Andrew "Roo" Yori entered the picture. $aToday, Wallace is a champion but in the summer of 2005, he was living in a shelter, a refugee from a suspicious pit-bull breeding operation. $aMeetings: I'm gonna love you - Going home: well, I guess we're it - Taking flight: I think Wallace might be awesome - Justification: we're playing with the big boys now aren't we? - World beater: what are you feeding that dog? - Going big: talk less, do more - Going home, again: everything looks cooler in slow motion. $aWallace : $bthe underdog who conquered a sport, saved a marriage, and championed pit bulls one flying disc at a time / $cJim Gorant. $aBTCTA $beng $cBTCTA $dBDX $dNSB $dCXP $dCO2 $dBUR $dORX $dYDXCP $dNSB $dCDX $dBWX $dDLC
