From my Hawaiian Language dictionary, Poki is a supernatural dog, the name was taked from Kamehameha I favorite dog....
There are some that say it was a white dog of Pele, & it is sent to mortals to warn of impending eruption :

There are dog shaped rocks on most of the islands called "Poki"
but I haven't found anything older than contact time on the dog... does anyone know if it is in any of the chants?
Glen... The flow has stopped, we were talking of bunnies online... maybe Pele is searching for her bunnies... Beware Bunnies!
