Who says your forever best friend can’t be handsome, sweet, and adventure ready? Aloha, I’m Squirtle...a 1 year old brindle Hound mix at the Kauai Humane Society with a heart full of love and a tail that wags like it’s always catching a good breeze. I’m a true lover who adores everyone I meet, gets along great with other dogs, walks nicely on a leash, and uses my smart boy brain to make my humans proud. I’m looking for a family who’s up for daily walks, fun adventures, playtime, and plenty of snuggles when the day winds down. The fastest way to get to know me? Take me out on a field trip today...I’m always ready to explore, soak in the sunshine, and show you why life’s better with a dog like me by your side. I’m happy to find my forever home right here on island, but if my people are on the mainland, I’ll gladly pack up and fly over with my aloha spirit intact. So…are you ready to let me tag along for all of life’s good moments? Schedule a meet and greet today or walk in anytime from 12 PM - 4:30 PM, except Thursdays.

More about this shelter
The Kauai Humane Society was established by the community in 1952 as a local non-profit 501(c)(3) organization to protect Kauai’s animals. We opened our current home just west of Lihue in 2001 thanks to the generous support of many individuals, families, businesses and foundations. We are an independent animal welfare organization and not a chapter of any mainland or Hawaii group.
The Kauai Humane Society(KHS) is the only physical animal shelter in Kauai County, Hawaii. We are a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization with a government contract to allow KHS to provide services to Kauai County for humane field services for cats and dogs.
Our facility does not turn away any sick or injured cat or dog found on Kauai. We strive to not euthanize any healthy, adoptable, and/or treatable animals for space or treatable medical reasons.
In 2022, for the year overall, KHS achieved a Live Release Rate of 94.4%; meaning 94.4% of the animals that came into KHS during 2022 were released with a positive outcome of being adopted, returned to the owner, or transferred to a rescue group.
