OMG this is so funny and sad!
I do belive that he's stuffed in Nome...If I'm not mistaken. I'll bet that's a premere tourist destination.
I don't want to meet an old stinky Dog. He wasn't even part wolf, he was a regular ol Husky.

Balto currently resides in the Cleveland Museum of Natural History where he mostly stays in cold storage. He is put on exhibit for few weeks around the anniversary of the 1925 diphtheria serum run.
Togo, Leonard Seppala's famous lead dog and a founder of the AKC Siberian Husky, is currently on display at the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race Headquarters. Togo was 12 years old at the time of Serum Run. He and rest of Seppala's team had the longest leg of a 19 team relay.
Balto was not just a "regular ol [sic] Husky." He proved that he was a LEAD dog by leading Gunnar Kassen's relay team through one of the worst Alaskan blizzards. The blizzard was so bad that Kassen could not even see the wheel dogs (last pair before the sled), let alone Balto. Kassen was completely relying on Balto to lead the team through the blizzard.

Listen, you have the right of criticizing; but don't go TOO far...

sigh....ignorance.......I am full of pity. I for one would like to "meet" the real balto  even if it is not the same one I admire in the stories, but just that if it wasn't for him, then this site and its fabulous membes wouldn't be here now would we.
The symbolic significance to bravery and intelligence is one not seen regularly.
