Peppa's Story

Peppa was born partially blind and deaf as the result of accidental breeding of two dogs with merle-patterned coats. This genetic condition is known as ''double merle.'' Double merles can live full, happy lives with the appropriate levels of care and support. Blind and deaf dogs can learn easily through positive reinforcement and touch cues. At Hawaii Island Humane Society, we are dedicated to advocating for blind and deaf dogs like Peppa and are here to support their future families in helping their new dog grow and thrive. Here is what my friends at Hawaii Island Humane Society have to say about me: - I am sweet and affectionate when meeting new people! - I love playing with toys (especially puzzle toys), and am treat motivated! I would love to learn more through positive reinforcement training. - I am a curious, smart, and athletic good girl. - When meeting other dogs I am goofy and playful! I enjoy making new dog friends. - I love the water, and am an athletic young girl who would make a great adventure and hiking companion!

Once you have filled out the adoption questionnaire, our Adoptions team will follow up with you via phone or email as soon as possible. 2.

Hawaii Island Humane Society's Adoption Policy

*Please note that due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we are unable to permit the public into our shelters to view our adoptable animals. All adoptions are by appointment only. Thank you for your understanding and patience.* Adopting a shelter pet is a rewarding and life-changing experience, for you AND for your new best friend. At Hawaii Island Humane Society, our mission is to enhance the bond between humans and animals. Pets are a lifelong commitment. As living beings, pets have physical, social, and emotional needs. Our trained Lifesaving Programs team utilizes progressive, conversational adoption counseling to help make the best matches for not only our shelter pets, but also for you! In line with national best practices and animal welfare industry standards, our goals are to remove barriers to adoption while also helping our shelter pets live their best lives as companion animals. HOW TO ADOPT: STEP 1 - Check out our available pets! STEP 2 - Submit an adoption application. You can submit an application directly from the animal's profile. 3. Wait to hear from an adoption counselor to schedule a meet and greet.* Our adoption counselors review adoption applications on Mondays and Tuesdays. Please do NOT contact our adoption counselors about the status of your application. Meet and Greets, and pet pick ups are scheduled on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays (Keaau and the Animal Community Center only.) *Please note: Due to the high volume of applications we receive, we are unable to respond to every applicant individually. Our adoptions team will contact you if we think you may be the right match for one of our shelter pets. We strictly prohibit the use of foster/shelter dogs for any activity other than being a companion animal.
