Hawaii Kai Dog Park on Oahu
Monday, January 4th, 2010For those who call Hawaii Kai home and have furry canine friends have definitely been to the Hawaii Kai dog park located on Keahole Street across the street from Hawaii Kai Towne Center. The park is open from dawn to dusk and only closed on Tuesday mornings from 7 am to 12 pm for park maintenance. This dog park also has a small dog area for dogs that are 18 pounds or less.
This large all grass dog park was founded by local group of Hawaii Kai dog owners called Hui ‘Ilio Hawaii. This active group of dog lovers are dedicated to “promote safe and friendly places for dogs and their people to play, and to promote responsible dog ownership.” In this mission they helped organize and establish Hawaii Kai dog park. Hui ‘Ilio Hawaii also organizes a group of volunteers to help maintain the rules, order, and up keep of the Hawaii Kai dog park.
Hawaii Kai dog park is best about 4 pm when the sun has started to go down, since there aren’t many shaded areas in the park. Usually, about 4 pm and on you can find this park packed with pooches. To enjoy this free dog park you must abide by a few rules. These rules can be found on the Hui ‘Ilio Hawaii website: http://www.hui-ilio.org/DogParkRules.php . The Hawaii Kai dog park is a beautiful Oahu off leash dog park, but owners beware the rules are strictly enforced by park volunteers.
