🚨SUPPORT NEEDED!🚨

Our island has been flooded with unwanted puppies. As part of our mission to eliminate pet overpopulation, we provide proactive solutions through free and low-cost spay and neuter services. Regardless, puppies continue to be born on our island.

For the puppies who need homes, we actively and continually look for placement opportunities. This includes local and off-island adoptions (and pop-up puppy events!) and transfers to our trusted partner organizations on the mainland that experience a high demand for puppies.

Our goal is to 1) place puppies as soon as possible to prevent them from growing up in the shelter environment, which is detrimental to their socialization while also 2) helping save the lives of as many puppies as possible!

In 2024 thus far, we have transported 80 dogs and puppies to our partner organizations on the mainland (East Bay SPCA, Seattle Humane, and Oregon Humane Society.)

Just two days ago, we sent 9 puppies to Oakland for the start of their next chapter. ✈️

From crates to health certificates to rabies vaccines, and most important, flights, HIHS absorbs the ENTIRE expense of transport. This is an expensive but necessary endeavor.

Today, our transport fund balance is ➡️ZERO⬅️. 😔 We need your support and funding to help us continue our transport efforts.

On average, it costs nearly $400 per pet for transport ($275 for the flight alone, through our rescue partnership with Alaska Airlines*.)

💸PLEASE DONATE! You can help save the lives of our island’s puppies by supporting our transport efforts. To donate, visit https://hihs.networkforgood.com/projects/202672-fund-a-flight-change-a-life

Together, we can make a difference.

❤️

*Please note that for many logistical reasons, our program is unable to use the support of volunteer ‘’flyers.’’

We met this little one at our September spay and neuter clinic 🐾 Isn’t she adorable? She’s looking for a permanent foster. Her name is Macchiato, about 4 months old, spayed, microchipped and has had her first vaccination (with 2 more to be scheduled to complete round). She’s sweet, smart and friendly with others (dogs and humans, cats unknown). Uses her crate for downtime, goes potty outside with structured schedule in place and knows “sit” command. If you’re interested, please fill out an application to foster on our website at www.hawaiidogfoundation.org 🐾 Mahalo for your support 🌺

📣URGENT PUPPY FOSTERS NEEDED📣

We got a call this morning asking if we could help 8 puppies who have been roaming loose in some local fields. They are hot, hungry, & all alone. They need our help. 😞

Unfortunately our shelter is at capacity & we have no room to bring these sweet souls in. But there is absolutely no way we are leaving these pups out to fend for themselves.

This is where YOU come in 🫵 we need emergency puppy fosters. We are willing to split them into small groups of 2, 3, or 4. This would be a temporary commitment, about two weeks, while we work to make shelter space.

If you are able to foster some, or all of these precious babies please text “LIFE SAVER” to 618-974-3880. Following your text we will call with the next steps. 🙏🏻

We've extended our adoption special so now you can Bring Love Home until June 30!

Right now, adoption fees for all dogs and puppies—including Uno, the adorable pup featured here—are completely waived. PLUS when you adopt a cat or kitten the adoption fee for a second cat or kitten is completely waived! Enjoy this adoption special and bring home your new furry friend (or two!) at our Mōʻiliʻili Campus, our Kosasa Family Campus, or one of our offsite adoption partners Pounce Hawaiʻi and select Petco locations island-wide!

Not in a position to adopt? You can still make a life-changing difference by fostering through our Couch Crashers and Lap Crashers programs for dogs and cats! Right now, our kennels are critically full with more animals in need coming into our care every day. Fostering through Couch and Lap Crashers gives dogs and cats a break from the shelter, helps us to learn more about what they’re like in a home environment, and allows us to have the space and resources available for the animals that need us most. It’s so easy: all you have to do is visit our Mōʻiliʻili or Kosasa Family campuses and ask an Adoptions Representative about Couch or Lap Crashing an adoptable animal!

For more information on this adoption special or to view all of our animals available for adoption, head to HawaiianHumane.org/adoptions
