DASH

Shelter dogs deserve more than a kennel, they deserve connection, movement, healing, and joy. 💙🐾 Through our Run. Play. Thrive. program in partnership with @dogsplayingforlife , we’re helping shelter dogs build confidence, reduce stress, learn social skills, and increase their chances of finding loving homes. Every playgroup is a step toward healing and hope. Together, we can help them thrive. Help us make this program possible this summer ✨ #DASH #RunPlayThrive #ShelterDogs #DogEnrichment #AdoptDontShop

Still not over our Kitten Pilates event 🥹🐾 Seeing everyone show up for these kittens, bring donations, and come together to support Collier County Domestic Animal Services was honestly so special. Together, we raised over $1,000 + over $1,000 worth of donated items to help care for these sweet adoptable babies. 🩵 @colliercountydas @dashfl_org Moments like this are what community is all about. Getting to bring people together through movement while also giving back and helping animals in need means everything to us. These kittens deserve so much love, care, and visibility, and we’re so grateful we could use Sculpted to help make even a small difference for them. Thank you to everyone who donated, showed up, cuddled kittens, and supported such an important cause. The love in the room was unreal 🐱✨ And yes… it was very hard not to take them all home.

Play is more than just fun, it’s life-changing. 🐾 Through Dogs Playing for Life, we help shelter dogs do what they’re meant to do: play, connect, and just be dogs again. Play reduces stress, builds confidence, and helps them show their true personalities, making it easier for them to find a home. This is all part of DASH’s Run, Play, Thrive initiative, focused on giving every dog the physical activity, socialization, and enrichment they need to truly thrive🩵 Because sometimes, one moment of play can change a dog’s entire future. Help us give them that chance, donation link in our bio! #DASH #DogsPlayingForLife #RunPlayThrive #AdoptDontShop #RescueDogs ShelterDogs

I started DASH because I couldn’t ignore what I was seeing, animals with so much love to give, being overlooked simply because they didn’t have the right support. So we built something different. Something intentional. At DASH, our mission is to heal, empower, and connect. 🩵We heal by providing the medical care and diagnostics they need to truly recover. 💚We empower through behavior and enrichment programs that give them a real chance at adoption. 💙And we connect, bringing these animals to the people, families, and community that will change their lives forever. This is more than rescue. It’s transformation. 🐾 Stay with us, there’s so much more to come. #DASHRescue #HealEmpowerConnect #AdoptDontShop #AnimalRescue

FORTY, FLAWLESS & FOR THE PAWS An evening designed with intention—where beauty, atmosphere, and purpose come together in support of something far greater. On May 30th, we gather @chartreuse_fl for cocktails, light bites by @creativeboardsnaples and desserts by @that_girl_bakehouse_naples for a thoughtfully curated experience—benefiting DASH (Domestic Animal Services Heroes) @dashfl_org an organization working behind the scenes to give shelter animals a real chance at a better life. Too many animals enter the system with too few resources and too little time. DASH steps in where it matters most—providing care, enrichment, and support that directly impacts their ability to be seen, chosen, and successfully adopted This night is about presence. It’s about impact. And it’s about showing up for something that truly matters. Limited capacity. Secure your place through the link in bio. #adoptdontshop #colliercountydas #colliercountydasalumni

Too many animals. Too little time. Not enough resources. That’s the reality most people don’t see. Behind every kennel is a life waiting, waiting for attention, care, and a second chance. That’s why DASH exists. 🐾 To step in where help is needed most and give these animals a better life while they wait. But we can’t do it alone. 🩵 Donate 🩵 Share 🩵 Support Be part of the change.

This is Noodles. She was used for backyard breeding and dumped once she was no longer “useful” after being spayed. She was picked up as a stray, adopted out, and returned within a week—for doing dog things like jumping up and barking. Weimaraners are incredibly intelligent, but they need structure and training. When I saw her on the @colliercountydas Instagram page, I just knew I could help her. I begged my sweet husband to take me to the shelter for my birthday, and that’s where I met @cazad and @eleevani —the volunteers who introduced us. We brought her home and quickly realized she had likely spent most of her life outside, (her paws told that story). She was completely untrained and starting from scratch with an adult dog was… not easy. There were moments I even questioned what I had gotten myself into (which says a lot). But she was also sweet, full of personality, a little quirky, and endlessly lovable. In July 2025, we officially foster-failed—and she became ours. This year, for my 40th birthday, I’m partnering with Candace (who I met that day at the shelter) and her organization @dashfl_org DASH (Domestic Animal Services Heroes), to host a fundraiser focused on increasing post-adoption success and reducing return rates. It’s something I’ve seen firsthand—and it matters more than most people realize. If this resonates with you, I would love your support—whether that’s liking, sharing, donating, or joining us in person. 🖤 Forty, Flawless & For the Paws May 30 | Limited to 70 guests Link in bio to reserve your spot.

Welcome to DASH 🩵 Some dogs don’t get picked right away. Some wait a little longer. Some just need… one more chance. 🐾 That’s why we exist.

We’re here to make their days brighter while they wait… with enrichment, medical support, and the kind of compassion every life deserves. Because every wag, every purr, every hopeful look matters. We believe that with a little help, every shelter animal can become someone’s everything. This is just the beginning. And we can’t do it without you. Join us. Be their hero.
