Help Maui Pets - Lahaina Fire Relief Fund

Hey there,

For those who don't know me, my name is Dr. Peter Dobias, and I've been a veterinarian for over 30 years. Throughout this time, my team and I have focused not only on animal health and nutrition but also on pet safety and welfare. We have worked with a number of charities and organizations and have already donated over $120 000 to date.

I first came to Maui in 2008, and since then, I have had a soft spot for the island, the kind people living here, and their pets. Coincidentally, I have been on Maui since the fires started and witnessed the tragedy's direct impact. It is heartbreaking and hard to describe. Beyond the toll on the community, many pets are now in need – they're traumatized, many suffered burns, some lost their families or are lost themselves.

I have been in touch with Maui Humane Society and was informed that while there are plenty of physical donations and volunteers, they need funds to cover the cost of the treatments, rehoming, and rescue operations, and this is why I am turning to you with an invitation to join this fundraiser.

Your support will help:

❤️‍ Medical Care: Attend to burns, smoke-related issues, and injuries

Rehab: Help these pets recover both physically and emotionally.

Shelter & Rehoming: Provide a safe space or even a new home for those in need.

Support their families: Aid with pet essentials, helping families rebuild and reunite.

Where's the money headed?

Directly to the frontline: The Maui Humane Society, vet care cost, and homeless families with pets.

Every bit helps, whether you can donate or share this message.

Thank you for showing up and making a difference. We'll keep everyone updated every step of the way.

With gratitude,

Dr. Peter Dobias, on behalf of my team and the whole community
