	Balto - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Balto was the lead dog on the final leg of the 1925 serum run to Nome, the transport of diphtheria antitoxin from Anchorage, to Nome, Alaska in the United States by dog sled, to combat an outbreak of the disease.
		Balto was not considered by the mushers a particularly good lead dog, but he proved himself on the Iditarod trail, saving his team from certain death in the Topkok River.
		After Balto's death in Cleveland on March 14, 1933, at 11 years old, he was mounted and placed on display in the Cleveland Museum of Natural History.

		There are plans in the works, however, for Balto to return to Alaska as part of a temporary exhibit at the Anchorage Museum of History and Art -- a testament to the strength of Balto's memory and a fitting memorial to his indomitable spirit.

	Balto
		Even though Balto was blind and lame a wonderful family complete with a 9 year old boy for Balto to call his own, adopted him from the Central Indiana Lab Rescue Assoc.
		At the time of his adoption Balto's new family was told that the limp in his rear end was due to arthritis.
		Dogs like Balto are seldom adopted because of their physical problems, but Balto's new family looked past that and saw a beautiful, perfect, warm, loving Lab on the inside and in all probability saved his life.

	Filmtracks: Balto (James Horner)
		Balto: (James Horner) Marking the substantial end to James Horner's string of successful scores for children's films, it would be several years before Horner would revisit the genre.
		Balto's more limited liftings were ironically one reason why it slipped by without much comment, but its obscurity to this day is more due to two other contributing factors.
		Balto doesn't have particularly strong theme-building character cues (outside, perhaps of the the fourth track on the album), but it makes up for that lack of drama with just sheer energy at nearly every turn.

		I have no doubt that Balto was a real sled dog, although I have certain doubts about whether he was able to achieve all of the feats depicted in "Balto," especially tying the dead driver to the sled before hauling him back to Nome.
		Balto is brave, loyal and honest, but gets into trouble because of the evil dog Steele (Jim Cummings), who frames him for stealing sausages.
		Balto's best friend is a Russian goose named Boris (voice by Bob Hoskins with an accent you could bottle) and a couple of polar bears (both voices by Phil Collins, because polar bears all sound alike).

		Balto is the hero of the story, half-wolf and half-husky.
		Although Balto is the fastest dog in the town, the job instead goes to his rival, Steel.
		However, halfway through the film, Balto jettisons both its antagonist and the comic relief, becoming purely a race of the sled dogs against the wilderness.

		Balto was born in Alaska, into the kennel of Leonhard Seppala who worked for a gold mining company, driving supplies by dog sled to the camps and taking sick or injured miners for medical care in Nome.
		Even though Balto grew to be one of his largest dogs, Seppala considered an older husky named Togo to be his top mushing dog.

		These were the ACTUAL harnesses worn by Balto and Togo, and since they weren't boxed in or glassed in or protected by a railing, I touched them.

		While the men and women at Disney pen their scripts with audiences of all ages in mind, the four screenwriters for Balto have aimed their film strictly at the under- twelve crowd.

		We really like the Balto character and are pleased to know that there are people like you out there that are such big fans.
		Good luck to the mushers, and memory to Balto, Togo, and the others that helped the children in 1925, laying the trail for the mushers today.
		As of Pacific time Balto 3's being shown again, but being 11:07 it's already half over before I caught it on TV, so I'm watching the remaining hour or half our of it (What with commercials and all), but mind you I'm still keeping the library request on it so I'd watch the whole thing.
