[edit] Togo Photo would e great

Togo deserves a photo! If anything, looking at photos of Togo and Balto serve as a good historical evidence of the changes in Huskie breeding preferences since then. I'm going to work on this article, ut I just can't quite get the hang of wikipedia's photo requirements for use . Hopefully a more experienced editor can help.Lisapollison 04:41, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

Balto doesn`t deserve a picture. Togo is the true hero, and Balto is a slow mutt who couldn`t even pull a sled with a feather on it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.3.190.49 (talkcontribs) 01:19, 25 August 2007

Please be Civil. Bashing Balto is inappropriate and nonconstructive on talk page about Togo. Togo definitely was the better dog and his record proves it. However, Balto did some amazing things during the Serum Run. He found the trail again after Kassan had lost it. He went from a second-rate sled dog to a proven lead dog.

They were both heroes, just like every other dog and person involved. Public sentiment is often fickle and arbitrary, but that does not mean we should detract from Balto's run. I think this article is pretty balanced overall.Ndriley97 (talk) 00:33, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
