I am very sorry that this accident happened. I do know how much animals mean to many owners, but also do know that some people do not have the same love of these furry family members...
Kathy, The law for the driver is in the Hawaii County Code, Chapter 4 sec 4-16

It is also up to the driver to try and notify the owner.
So no matter where the dog was, it was the drivers obligation, BY LAW, to stop, render aid if needed, make sure that the dog was not in the roadway, and to try to notify the owner....
