Rescue With Leo - Help Now—Adopt, Foster, Donate.
At The Ulu Team, we support local animal rescues, knowing every wagging tail adds to our aloha spirit. Choosing adoption gives dogs a second chance and helps ease overcrowded shelters.
Leo was rescued (picture to the right), and his journey from hardship to a loving home changed everything. He reminds us of the many dogs in Hawai‘i still waiting. Our mission is simple: help more dogs find families, foster safe spaces, and support the tireless work of rescues. Every action can change a dog’s life.
We proudly partner with local organizations dedicated to successful adoptions. Connecting with them isn't just adopting a pet—it's joining a life-saving mission.

Hina's Legacy Rescue Foundation
Adopt & Foster or DonateFor over ten years, Hina's Legacy Rescue Foundation has saved dogs in and around Hawaii. Our main goal is to find loving homes for every dog, ensuring they receive the medical care, training, and love they need. We also provide support and advice to pet owners to help dogs build strong, lasting bonds with their new families. However, our ability to save lives hinges on the availability of loving foster homes. Without foster families, we cannot rescue dogs in desperate need, leaving them vulnerable.

Your immediate help is critical. Many dogs are waiting for a chance at life, but we cannot bring them into our care without a temporary home. Becoming a foster parent is not just an act of kindness; it's a lifeline. It provides a safe haven, allows us to assess their needs, and prepares them for their forever families. Without foster families, these dogs cannot be rescued. We desperately need foster homes to continue our life-saving work. Please, open your home and heart today and make an urgent difference.
