The Underdog Who Conquered a Sport, Saved a Marriage, and Championed a Breed--One Flying Disc at a Time
WALLACE is the inspiring story of an unwanted pit bull who grew up on the street and got a second chance at lifewhen he was adopted and saved from euthanasia, ultimately becoming a world-champion Frisbee dog. Wallace’s owner, Roo, found him at a dog shelter and immediately adopted him.
Adjusting to domestic life wasn’t easy for the former street dog, and Roo knew that Wallace needed a mission so he began training him to be a competitive Frisbee Dog. Pitbulls are not Frisbee players, but Roo was determined to make Wallace happy and also change people’s mind about pit bulls. After a journey that was anything but easy, the pair became World Champions, changed thousands of minds about pit bulls, and they changed their sport.
