balto is a famous lead dog in 1925, when there was a desiese spreading in Nome Alaska. the sleds would pass the medicene down to each team to bring back the medicene. Togo was also a lead dog, his team passed the medicene to balto's team and balto's team reached nome with medicene. (not the movie, this is the real story)

Balto was the lead dog for the last team of dogs to carry the Diptheria medication to Nome.
The Cleveland Museum of Natural History on display as a stuffed dog :(
The sled run to retrieve the medicine was actually a relay. Instead of being the leader of the first team, Balto was the leader of the last team to carry the medicine to Nome. The longest and most hazardous distance was traveled by the team led by Togo.The medicine was never driven by the dogs alone, and none of the mushers were incapacitated.Balto was never an outcast as shown by the film, but was instead born in a kennel owned by the famous musher Leonhard Seppala, where he was trained until he was deemed fit for pulling a sled as the lead dog. Seppala was also the owner of Togo, whom he personally used to lead his dog team during the relay. Balto was actually used by one of Seppala's workers, Gunnar Kaasen.Obviously, Balto is the only animal, and possibly the only character, in the movie who is real.Also, Balto was not part wolf. He was a Siberian Husky.(All but the last answer came from Wiki. The last answer came from Yahoo Answers)
