I do know that 2 of the Punaweb posters (is that the term for people who post...) have traveled here with boxers...one from the east coast through Honolulu & one from the west coast to Kona (these are from a dusty memory, but a search on Punaweb may give you a lot of info for your trip...)
Another thing to think about...traveling with your little guy on island... most beaches & parks do not allow dogs, many stores & resorts also do not allow. There is only one dog park that I know on on the east side, at the Keaau Humane ... it is a fenced play yard, not a large dog park, and many of the long state/county trails have double duty with hunters...they may have unleashed hunting dogs...
If you have a place to stay that has a safe area for your guy if you do go to the beach or shopping or other non-pet areas, then this is not as much of a problem.
And Glen, Welcome back... hope to see you at the Cookie Parade.... Our spotted girl should be decked out in her holiday finest (She enjoyed the VERY short Hilo parade, esp. the 2 dog units in that parade.... Mayor Kenoi even noticed her (of course the lighted moose ears helped...)
