But in the summer of 2005, he was living in a shelter, a refugee from a suspicious pit bull-breeding operation. Andrew \"Roo\" Yori, a scientist and shelter volunteer, could tell immediately that Wallace was something special. While on his honeymoon, Roo learned that Wallace was about to be put down. Frantic—and even though they already had two dogs—Roo and his wife fought to keep Wallace alive until they could return home to adopt him.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOnce Wallace made it home, Roo knew the dog needed a mission, and serendipity led them to the world of competitive Frisbee dogs.
