Beagle rescues & shelters in Kailua-kona, HI

2 organizations in Kailua-kona that take in and rehome beagles, hounds, and other dogs. Always call ahead to confirm current beagle availability.

Kailua-Kona sits on Hawaii's Kona Coast, and beagle rescues here run lean — two organizations serve the area, one with a polished online presence and one that doesn't. Paws University carries an A-grade website and stays actively involved in rescue work; West Hawaii Animal Urgent Care handles urgent cases but maintains minimal web presence. On a island this size, beagles aren't constantly cycling through intake, so patience and a direct relationship with both groups matter more than luck. Call ahead, introduce yourself, and ask to be flagged the moment a hound arrives. That personal touch is how you find a dog in Kona.

West Hawaii Animal Urgent Care F

Kailua-kona, HI

5.0★ (8 reviews)

Island adoption moves at island speed, and that's not a bad thing — it means the dog you find here has usually been well-cared-for while waiting for home. Reach out to both Paws University and West Hawaii Animal Urgent Care, explain that you're looking for a beagle or hound-mix, and ask to be on their contact list. Confirm any dog is actually available before planning a visit, and consider checking a wider search on Petfinder if your timeline is short. The beagle that makes its way to you on the Kona Coast will trade a long wait for a home where it stays forever.
