He is a mix of chow and terrier I believe. when my scottie died about 8 years ago, I was undergoing treatment for Hep c. Much like chemo I was deathly ill from treatment. It was Christmas eve and my scottie, Gandolf, had a brain anuerism and had to be put to sleep. I was extremly depressed and sick to boot. Wallace got chased under our neighbors house by two big dogs. He was only about 8 weeks old. My neighbor could hear him crying but couldn't coax him out. It took me two days of talking and I finally put up a trap that would catch him when he came out to eat. I picked him up and he preceeded to poop all over me. It was love at first sight. He looked like a golden retriever puppy but he is far from a golden retriever. He is never the less my little Brave Heart so the name, William Wallace. He truely stepped in to ease the void left behind from my Gandolf. He is my really and truely soulmate, next to my DH.
