My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Aloha! Are you ready to meet the most adorable, charming, and downright handsome sidekick in all of Hawaii? Well, look no further, because I’m Rizzy! I’m a 2-year-old short coat Chihuahua mix, weighing in at a mighty 11 lbs of pure cuteness and adventure-ready energy. If you need a dog who’s as small as a coconut but as big in personality as the Pacific Ocean, I’m your guy! Here’s the deal: I’m an absolute sweetheart who loves everyone I meet—humans and other dogs. I walk like a pro on a leash, strutting my stuff as if I’m on a runway. But if you’re not feeling the walking thing, no worries—I love to be carried like the little king I am. Yes, I’m the ultimate lapdog and ready to let you treat me like royalty. I’m looking for a family that will take me on exciting adventures, play with me, and, of course, shower me with snuggles. I’m super eager to please, and with your love, I’ll be the best sidekick you’ve ever had. Whether you`re on the island or the mainland, I’m packed and ready to join you on all your journeys. So, what do you say? Ready to adopt the ultimate tiny adventure buddy? Let’s make memories, go on hikes, and spend countless hours together with me in your lap. Trust me, life’s better with Rizzy by your side. Let`s go! P.S. I’m very skilled at winning hearts—and I’m about to win yours! 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.
