03/05/09: All 3 bills (SB30/ 488/1188) prohibiting dog tethering have been "deferred." This means they are dead for now. We will try again next Legislative session because we believe the daily occurence of thousands of dogs across the islands being chained to one spot under all kinds of weather 365 days a year is a severe act of cruelty and no laws or "humane" institutions should allow it to continue.
What you can do:
* Get in touch with us now on how YOU can help in getting the bills up again and passed next session.
* Report all occurences of dog tethering to your local Humane Societies and make sure they: 1) document it, 2) send out investigators, and 3) follow through with results, why or why not. (Since the Hawaiian Humane Society does not think this a widespread problem, they did not support the bills citing enforcement issues and "the need for a statewide survey to record the number of actual occurences.")
