Hawaii Dog Foundation is a no-kill dog rescue organization based on Oahu. HDF is run entirely by volunteers. Although we don't have a central office or shelter that you can visit, we hold Meet & Greets on a regular basis so that you can come and meet our dogs. Please see the Adoption Information or Meet Our Dogs page for more information. We've just added some videos to the site which you can see here.

Keep your dogs safe and happy this 4th of July!

Helping Hawaii's Dog's
We are a group of Dog Lovers with a common goal:
No More Homeless Dogs in Hawaii!

Our ONLY goal is to assure that EVERY Dog in Hawaii lives a happy, healthy and safe life. At HDF, euthanasia is NEVER  an option for a healthy Dog!
 
The Hawaii Dog Foundation is a 501(c) 3 nonprofit corporation on Oahu whose primary goal is to ensure that every dog in Hawaii is given the chance to live out its natural life in peace, safety, and contentment. Our immediate goal is to continue taking in homeless dogs, using our foster care network, and finding permanent, loving homes for them. Hawaii Dog Foundation is a no-kill dog rescue organization based on Oahu. HDF is run entirely by volunteers. Although we don't have a central office or shelter that you can visit, we hold Meet & Greets on a regular basis so that you can come and meet our dogs. Please see the Adoption Information or Needs A Home page for more information.

Our intermediate goal is to open a "no kill" shelter to accommodate the increasing number of dogs we receive.

Our long-term goal, our dream, is to open a sanctuary where, additionally, we will be able to permanently house those dogs who, for whatever reason, are not adoptable. In order to achieve these goals we will be involved in various fundraising activities throughout the Hawaiian Islands. Results of our fundraising efforts will help in providing food, transportation and support for our foster families as well as advertising costs involved in finding permanent homes for all homeless dogs in Hawaii.

We LOVE 'em all! Big Dogs, Small Dogs, Medium Dogs!  Whether they are short haired or long haired, purebreds, mutts or poi dogs, house dogs or yard dogs! Canines of every shape, size and color!  We are especially fond of people who love dogs: LIKE YOU! That's why you are here! Please: sit back, relax and browse our site. Your comments and feedback are welcome and appreciated.

Please Join us as we strive to reach our goal of No More Homeless Dogs in Hawaii!

Our immediate financial goal is to raise the necessary funding to acquire a shelter to house the stray dogs we come across. We have also joined the Best Friends Network (BestFriends.org) and are receiving a tremendous amount of support and information from them.

But before we can do that:
We are working diligently to build a Foster Care network to temporarily house the Dogs we are working with.  Our primary focus will ALWAYS be to find lifelong permanent good homes for them.

Keep your dogs safe and happy this 4th of July!

While we are celebrating JULY 4th weekend, please remember that this is also the time where many of our beloved dogs escape from the safe comfort of their homes in fear, because of the noise. Many are never found again. Many run into the street, so scared that they get hit by cars and their owner's never find out what happened to them.

DON'T LET YOUR DOG BE A STATISTIC!

Some owners prepare ahead of time by calling their vets to see about getting tranquilizers for their dogs. Other owners opt for the all natural route (always consult your vet before trying something new) Either way, it helps most dogs to stay calm during all of the loud cracks and Booms of fireworks and aerials. Another way to prepare for the 4th of July is to be sure that your dog is microchipped AND has an ID Tag on his/her collar, with your current phone # on it, at ALL times.

Even if they are indoor only dogs, KEEP THEIR COLLAR AND TAG ON!

Many owners feel that a microchip is adequate. IT IS NOT! It only works to reunite lost dogs with their families if the dog is brought in to a vet after being found or if the Humane Society receives the lost dog.

If they are outside dogs, bring them indoors and make them comfortable to wait out the noise.

If you keep an updated ID Tag on your dog, the good samaritan that comes across your dog can call you instantly! Thus, a better chance at a quick reunion!!

An ID Tag should be kept on your dog year round but it is most important during fireworks, public outings and especially during a move.

If you feel that your dog's anxiety is extremely high and the meds or natural supplements don't work too well for them, consider placing them in boarding/doggie day care (ALWAYS research the facility and take a tour before leaving your dog in anyone's care) for the evening or consider taking your dog to a friend or family's home that does not tend to have fireworks going on in their neighborhood.

We hope that this information has been helpful.
