Greetings, dear reader! I am Jane Austin—yes, like the famous author, but I promise I’m way more cuddly than any character she wrote about. I’m a charming 2-year-old, 16 lb. rat terrier-chihuahua mix, and I’m here to find my forever family. As much as I love to be the star of the show, I’m also the perfect sidekick for life’s adventures! Whether it’s going on walks (I love a good stroll, though I might expect a piggyback ride if I get tired), playing with toys, or just curling up for snuggles—count me in! I’m a social butterfly who gets along with everyone, including other dogs, and I’ll be your loyal companion through thick and thin. Looking for a dog who’s just as happy being carried in your arms as she is chasing after a tennis ball? That’s me! I’m always ready to go wherever you go and share all the joy that comes with being your trusty sidekick. I’m available for on-island adoption, or I’d be thrilled to fly to the mainland and join your family there! Come meet me at the Kauai Humane Society, and let’s see if we can write our own love story—no “drama” required! Schedule a meet and greet today or walk in anytime from 12 pm - 4 pm except for 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.
