    Why do I feel like I just lost a dog that I knew a long time? The video goes from proud memories to remember, whether u knew the dog or not, but it is by 5:00 when it hit me like "Damn...his story is over. It is really over. A life worth living, though, no?" It is very touching. RIP Wallace!

    Still think of Wallace often. I wanted to hear this song, but it was not the same without seeing Wallace. So I am here again, admiring Wallace.

    I have a 15-16 year old pit bull like this. She’s still up for frisbee multiple times a day. She will bug me until I play. She can’t dart across the yard and catch it in the air too well these days, but she will run across the yard and wait until I throw it, and she catches it more than half of the time. She’s absolutely amazing, and cannot believe she’s still going strong!

    Wallace, Drew, and Josh- a combination you only see once or twice in a lifetime.
    Thank you for leaving this videos app. You guys and Wallace are still an incredible inspiration to me.

    WOW!!!!!!
    Roo my name is David Gray, Fred at Pit Bulletin Legal News Network contacted me about making the "Wallace Award" Video. I was the guy that made the video for them. I have worked in sports television productions as a tape operator and editor for 20 years...YOU KILLED IT ON THIS VIDEO, GREAT EDIT!!!!!!!
    My wife and I have been inspired by not only Wallace's achievements but the example and hard work that you and Clara have shown. Thank you for EVERYTHING that you and Wallace did in changing perceptions about the Pit Bull breed...and thanks for the AWESOME video!

    A sweet joyful dog. Thank you for giving him such a wonderful life, Every dog deserves to have that much fun and love. So many potential best friends get euthanized at shelters … breaks my heart.

    The Animal Rescue Site shared a video of Wallace's 11th birthday and the huge box of toys he received. As I always do, I clicked on the TH-cam source and that ultimately brought me here. So sad he lost his battle with cancer but so happy he found such joy after being rescued from the shelter. I've shared this video back to Facebook so others can see what a great dog he was and what a great person took him into his life.

  • @onekinkstar
    @onekinkstar 10 ปีที่แล้ว +9

    Wallace had some wicked Frisbee catches, but his Daddy was the one who set him up just right - distance and height. That took talent - a TEAM effort. I'm sure the family is missing Wallace and while he can never EVER be replaced, it wouldn't be right to not give another pup a chance with THAT DADDY. I hope you are all doing well, over these holidaZe - the first without this boy, and hope me saying this wasn't offensive, because that's certainly NOT my intention. No one who is loved is ever really gone . . .

    Wimp.com recently posted the video of Wallaces 11th birthday with all the toys, and while it takes a lot to get me choked up, it did the trick. I can tell just by looking at him though, he was a happy, happy dog who had very loving owners. I'm sorry for your loss.

    so sad, and he passed on my birthday, RIP Wallace
    A Dog’s Plea
    Treat me kindly, my beloved friend, for no heart in all the world is more grateful for kindness than the loving heart of me.
    Do not break my spirit with a stick, for although I should lick your hand between blows, your patience and understanding will quickly teach me the things you would have me learn.
    Speak to me often, for your voice is the world’s sweetest music, as you must know by the fierce wagging of my tail when your footsteps falls upon my waiting ear.
    Please take me inside when it is cold and wet, for I am a domesticated animal, no longer accustomed to bitter elements. I ask no greater glory than the privilege of sitting at your feet beside the hearth. Keep my pan filled with fresh water, for I cannot tell you when I suffer thirst.
    Feed me clean food that I may stay well, to romp and play and do your bidding, to walk by your side and stand ready, willing and able to protect you with my life, should your life be in danger.
    And, my friend, when I am very old, and I no longer enjoy good health, hearing and sight, do not make heroic efforts to keep me going. I am not having any fun. Please see that my trusting life is taken gently. I shall leave this earth knowing with the last breath I draw that my fate was always safest in your hands.

    I loved the book Roo. I think Wallace was bigger than Lassie, and braver than Rin Tin Tin. I liked the way all of you stood together for Wallace, in the book. He became a wonderful dog.I just donated to the "Wallace the pit bull foundation" because of what you did and continue to do for the big furry hearts with four legs, pit bulls.

    Whoa! Respect to Wallace but mostly for his owners who knew how to love a dog. Will be putting my mother-inlaw's dog down tomorrow. So sad, but he was rescued from a shelter 10 years ago a few days before being euthanized. He loved ripping stuff toys apart too!
