Hui 'Ilio Hawai'i (the Hawaii Dog Group) was founded to promote safe and friendly places for dogs and their people to play, and to promote responsible dog ownership. Our initial reason for organizing was to establish the Hawaii Kai Dog Park. Now that the park is a reality, we continue to support the park as the adoptive "park partners," by recruiting and training volunteer park rangers, and by sponsoring clean-up days and additional park improvements. Our ongoing goals are to help other dog groups get approval for parks in their respective districts, enhance the opportunities for dogs to get proper exercise and socialization, and to promote the licensing, vaccination, and good-behavior training of dogs.

Please visit our Hawaii Kai Dog Park page - read all about it! On this page, you'll find the City's dog park rules and regulations, dog park tips and etiquette, and other useful information. The page is still under development, so please send us your questions to help us provide further information that will assist park users.

CALLING ALL VOLUNTEERS! We are always looking for "Park Rangers" to work in the dog park.   We also have other volunteer opportunities such as weeding, planting and maintenance work days. Please contact us if you are interested in any of our volunteer opportunities.

If you would like to support Hui Ilio's mission, please go to our "contact us" page to make a donation or to volunteer.
