YODA  1-2yrs - 37 lbs - Hound Mix - very sweet and non aggressive. (Notes from his foster mom)
He gets along with other males dogs even twice his size amazingly makes no noise and does not chew or dig.
I am walking him everyday and working with him on sit and heel.  He so wants to play and be a member of
the family.  He does not bark at the resident dogs or show any undesirable behaviors. Not food aggressive
or aggressive to people.  Likes kids very much.  He just loves everyone.  He does not react to the cats we
have passed on our walks everyday. I have already vetted and neutered him.  He is heartworm neg and on
prevention and has no fleas, mites, worms or ticks.  He would do well in a home that will train him and give
him lots of exercise everyday.  Also I would not let him off lead as he is a hound and they follow their noses
into trouble or getting lost. A fence would be best to play ball in.
