Maui Humane Society is urgently requesting the community’s help to provide temporary homes for dogs. Maui Humane Society currently has 120 dogs in their care and has kennel capacity for 40 dogs. Dogs are being paired in kennels to make additional space. 30 SOS Fosters are needed immediately to help decrease the dog population at the shelter.
Maui Humane Society reportedly receives about five lost pet claims every day. That’s upwards of 1,800 lost dogs at Maui’s shelter a year. To curb those numbers, the nonprofit has partnered with PetHub, a modern pet identification system out of Washington state, to distribute specialized pet tags that owners can add to their animal’s collar.
Maui Humane Society and Down the Hatch is hosting an event for pet-lovers to get play with their lovable animals and possibly take home a forever friend. The mobile adoption and donation event will be at the Maui Community at Down the Hatch on Saturday, April 15, from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m

For Maui dog owners who recently received their new 2023/2024 dog license in the mail, the digital tag must be activated online. “The amount of stray dogs that we have enter our shelter every single day is unbelievable.
