... About Yoda:
Yoda is a 10-year-old male beagle with many positive and a few negative traits. 97% of the time, Yoda is a good boy: he loves to go for walks or curl up with his foster person on the sofa or bed. He’s house-trained and, while he’ll readily go in his crate, he can be a little anxious in there until he settles down. He also enjoys riding in the car. He loves his food and will do anything to get some, including following you from room to room in hopes that you might drop something edible.
The other 3% of the time, Yoda can present challenges. Certain things set him off so that he’ll nip at, and on occasion, bite the person who displeases him. He guards food (or anything he perceives to be food) and does not like to be startled, especially when he’s drowsy. He’s friendly to most strangers, but sometimes too friendly (humping legs); pushing him away has on one occasion resulted in retaliation. Once Yoda knows you, he’s much less likely to exhibit these behaviors. He’s also very excited by an arrival at the front door and has to be restrained long enough to let the visitor in.
With other dogs, Yoda is usually fine, but occasionally can get into a rumble, usually triggered by his trying to hump the other dog. He would do best in a home with no other pets.
Yoda is in good health for his age. He still has tons of energy. He has a history of joint problems in his hind legs, but – with a daily joint supplement – has exhibited no symptoms in the past year. He also has a moderate heart murmur, but this does not limit his activity in any way.
Overall, Yoda is a good dog with a few problem behaviors that can mostly be avoided once one knows his triggers. He deserves a good home. Won’t you help him find a place where he can be happy and loved?See More

Boy’s Donation to Animal Shelter Inspires Others to Give
Posted on
For the most part, kids do not have a lot of money at their disposal. Most of the cash they get comes from birthday gifts, an allowance, or chores and odd jobs. So it’s understandable that any funds they accumulate are precious to them.
Ten-year-old Evan did something selfless with his allowance that could teach us all a lesson in caring for others. In 2009, Evan adopted a cat named Macha from City Kitties rescue in Philadelphia. He was only 7 years old at the time, and he wanted to continue to help the organization that had connected him with his new pet.
So he saved his allowance for months and donated $46.75 to City Kitties at the end of the year. He did not stop there. Evan’s donation was accompanied by a heartfelt note that read, in part, “I love cats! They are my favorite animals, and I got my cat at city kitties as well! I get an allowance every week and I chose to make a donation to you. I love that you help cats find homes. I saved this money to help you help cats.”
The next year, in 2010, Evan took an interest in a cat named Calvin who was living in a foster home. Evan sprang into action again, this time setting up a stand to sell figs from his family’s tree to raise money in Calvin’s name. He earned $86, which he donated to City Kitties.
Evan’s parents staged a little surprise for him. They told him that Calvin had been adopted, so that he would need to go say goodbye. Once Evan arrived and asked if Calvin would be living nearby, the people at City Kitties showed him the cat’s new address. To Evan’s surprise, it was his own.
Every year since then, Evan has sent another donation accompanied by a letter, and this past year he gave $110. Many people on social media websites like Facebook and Reddit have been inspired by the boy’s spirit of giving, calling Evan an “amazing kid.” One person summed it up best: “The world needs more Evans. A great example to the world.”
