Just a few tasks we can teach a dog to do to help their person with a disability. To identify the tasks most beneficial and realistic for both pup and person, it is usually best to consult with doctors and physical therapists and assess the environment. Not every dog is suitable for public access work, but may still be able to help their human at home. 🐾🌺

We believe in creating a joyful and nurturing environment for our dog visitors, offering boarding, daycare, and training services with a personal touch. That's why we're looking for someone special - someone who is reliable, quick to learn, enjoys a bit of spontaneity, and pays attention to the smallest details, ensuring our facility remains clean and our dogs happy.

No need to have tons of experience - just a genuine love for dogs and the eagerness to learn, as we provide on-the-job training. We are looking for someone with the ability to cover at least 3 of our 2.5 hour shifts per week.

If you're easy-going, have a knack for cleanliness, and dream of spending your days surrounded by wagging tails and happy barks, we'd love to meet you!

On Friday evening we said good bye to our sweet Lily bug and our hearts are heavy as we are grieving her loss. 💔🐾 So many thoughts and memories yet so difficult to put words together in a public post when this process is such a personal one. We are grateful for the support we had in her last hours and that we could say good bye to our sweet girl in the comfort of our home. I am personally incredibly grateful for the divine timing and the chance to be with her all of Friday and give her lots of the thing that she loved the very most (well, next to food…) and that is snuggles. 🥰 Diagnosed with early stage kidney diseases 2.5 years ago and then with a non-healing hole in her cornea over a year ago, we did everything we could to try and keep her feeling great for as long as possible with the support of our amazing vet and dog nutritionist and her blood tests kept coming back great until just recently. Having adopted Lily when she was guesstimated to be between 5 and 7 we have no idea how old she actually made it to be, but we know we had an absolutely amazing almost 10 years with her and are grateful for that too. When Lily came into our lives she filled a hole in my (our) heart(s). We had been going through a couple of early miscarriages and two second trimester losses and it was a tough time for us. I can never thank Lily enough for all the love, snuggles and companionship she gave me back then. ❤️ As Lily’s sweet soul has left us, her love is still alive inside all of us. Sweet Lily bug, you will always be in our hearts ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Your mom, dad, human and dog brother ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Please say hi to Red dog from us and we hope you two will finally be reunited and having a blast together! 🙏🏼🙌🏼😘

Before we have another evaluation day tomorrow, it’s about time we post the evaluation pups from the last three weeks! Happy to say many of these boys and girls passed with flying colors 🤗🌺 also happy to say we survived another couple of weeks without our daddy (yep, another work trip) 😂 Thanks to our fabulous team for always being here for the pups 🐾🌺💗

Our 2024 evaluations were off to a great start with these sweet pups 🤗🐾🌺 We look forward to seeing some of these boys and girls here again soon for their hoarding stays and for some training for the younger ones amongst them too. 🤗🌺🐾

While we did have some fun taking these pictures this afternoon, we are not having the funnest new years pawty over here… fireworks already started to go off pretty consistently before 7pm and 3 of our guest pups plus one of our pups are particularly nervous… the music is on the loudest setting, all windows are closed, medications and calming supplements have been given, pheromone diffuser is going and snuggles are being given. We truly feel with all the people and animals that are sound sensitive and get triggered by these big bangs… 😭 It’s going to be a long night and we are ready for 2023 to be over and the first morning of 2024 to shine bright (and quiet) for us. 🌺🍀 Happy new year everyone

Bringing you the evaluation pups from the last 3 evaluations with a big delay once again… it seems like the whole Happy Dogs Maui team has been sick more than once these past couple of months (including our little guy…) and Instagram just isn’t on top of my priority list in those times…. Taking care of everyone around here and uploading pictures for the dog parents every evening is! 🤗 So please admire these beautiful pups with me now that everyone over here is happy and healthy again and before we head into the new year. 🤗🐾🌺
