The Four Seasons Resort Maui, Fairmont Kea Lani, and Andaz Maui at Wailea Resort are going to the dogs. The three luxury resorts are teaming up with the Maui Humane Society for its annual Wags to Riches event. Only this year, rather than host a mere event, the hotels are giving away one-night stays for the dogs and their human friends.
“We love the idea of taking a homeless shelter dog to a world-class resort where they’ll be spoiled for the night,” Maui Humane Society CEO Steve MacKinnon said.
Under state law, abandoning an animal, including by trapping and relocating the animal, is a crime punishable by up to one year in jail and a $2,000 fine, said Emily Drose, community cat coordinator for the Maui Humane Society. The Maui Humane Society can provide resources as to how to keep cats off your property without harming them.

Rory Stoykoff says his late wife, Zayna, was a beautiful person. Three years ago, the Maui middle school teacher was diagnosed with breast cancer.
“It was triple negative breast cancer. If you have breast cancer, it’s the one you do not want to have,” Stoykoff said.
During her treatment, there was a glimmer of hope when the couple thought she would get better.
“In celebration, she got a dog without telling me,” Stoykoff said.
That dog was a mixed-breed rescue animal from the Maui Humane Society. The Stoykoffs named her Kaia.
