Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Online Adoption Application › Meet Pretty Girl! This little pretty has not had an easy go of it, as she spent many days in emergency care for Parvo and then some (over $8,000 in vet bills!)  Pretty Girl is healthy now and making up for lost time. She is a petite princess and can sometimes be bossy with other dogs.  She has had some exposure to cats in her current foster home. The cats there do not put up with dog nonsense. She is ready to have all your attention to herself. She can be a little timid and unsure so she will need to have your heart and your time.  Because of her rough past, she can be a flight risk.  She will need a physical 3 foot fenced yard that she cannot escape from and since she is so tiny, their can't be any spaces she will fit through. Pretty Girl is still working on leash training so a secured area will be the safest place to get her used to her new family and a leash.  Just be patient with her and you won’t be disappointed.  Pretty Girl is working on using the doggie door and piddle pads in her foster home. If you want the cutest addition to your home – turn in an application!  She is ready for a stable and safe home. Columbus and surrounding areas only please. If you're interested in adopting, the first step in our adoption process is to submit an application on our website, www.dashanimalrescue.orgVisit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.December 4, 2024, 1:55 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Online Adoption Application › Introducing Jaylen! Like her namesake Philadelphia Eagles, she's a definite winner! She is also joined by her 2 teammates (siblings) sister Devonte & brother Donovan. This precious baby is looking for her forever home but the 1st stop on her journey is our DASH Prison Training Program where she will learn her puppy manners, basic commands and has already learned to sit! Of course, she will need continued training & guidance as she acclimates to her new home. Jaylen is almost crate trained but she still barks sometimes as she'd much rather be with her person. She is also working on leash & house/potty training, doing very well with both. Jaylen loves her toys, people & playing with the other dogs. She has not been cat or kid tested so proper introductions are required especially with little kiddos due to her puppy energy. All that puppy love & energy will have her sprinting toward the goal line for a family of her own. Apply to meet her today!Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.March 22, 2025, 4:42 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Online Adoption Application › Meet Roxy! This beautiful Great Dane came to DASH with her mom, Bella, when their owners home caught fire and she was unable to care for them. Roxy was previously an outside dog who has really started to enjoy the comforts of being an inside dog. She enjoys playing outside no matter the weather, but then will come in and try to be lap dog, as she doesn't really know her own size. She is very cuddly and affectionate and loves her toys. She does know some basic commands when treats are involved. She is almost housebroken and is working on her leash manners. She is crate trained as well. She is a very sweet and energetic dog, whose new family will need to continue working on her leash training and adjusting to being an indoor dog. She gets along well with other dogs, but has not been kid or cat tested. Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.April 16, 2025, 2:02 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Online Adoption Application › Help us welcome Elton to the DASH Prison Training program. He is a young Plott Hound mix who has a beautiful brindle coat. He is housebroken and gets along well with other dogs and humans. However, he does not like to share his food or toys. He has not been tested with children or cats so a proper introduction is in order. He lives to play and has a lot of energy to burn. Elton is a social lad and does well in crowds.  However, due to his hyperactivity and excitement, he does tend to jump on people. Of course the training program is working on this with Elton. He is a vocal dog. Elton is the most affectionate dog you will ever meet and is eagerly waiting for his forever home.  He is a vocal dog so an apartment or condo would not be an ideal home for him.  He also likes to bark at passing cars as if he wants to go for a ride. He will require a good, tall fence as he is a climber.   Please don't let his outgoing personality keep you from making this guy your own.  If you are a runner or need an active dog in your life, this is your boy!  We know the perfect home awaits Elton.   If you would like to meet or adopt this fella, please complete an application at: https://dashrescue.rescuegroups.org/info/adoption Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.April 16, 2025, 9:03 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Online Adoption Application › Meet Timmy! This spunky little guy is ready to get on with it & find his new home. He has entered our DASH Prison Training Program where he will be learning his manners and basic commands like sit, stay, down, wait & leave it, also learning he's not the boss dog. He seems very curious and wants to stick his nose in or investigate everything around him. He appears to love all people likes attention, but seems to be a little dog selective especially when they're bigger than he is, thinking he's "badder than a junkyard dog"! This means a proper meet & greet is in order. With a little structure and training he should calm down to become the best little lap dog. If you're willing to work with him, continue his training and give him a little love, he could be your new best buddy.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Online Adoption Application › Meet Poppy June! Such a little social butterfly! She is part of the DASH Prison Training Program where she continues to practice all her basic commands. She now knows sit, down, stay/wait leave-it and Freeee for release. She knows her leash manners, loves walks and will heel nicely (most of the time)!  Poppy gets along with the other dogs in the program, loves to play with toys or fetch and is also housebroken and crate trained. What more could we want from a dog? She's the perfect girl! Her handler says that she is such an amazing, lovable dog, and is so deserving of a great home. She is so full of love and energy, even her body shakes because she's so excited to see people. She loves everyone and hopes they will sneak her a treat! She also loves to play outside, so a fenced in yard would be a bonus.  Poppy has not been cat or kid tested while with us, so a meet & greet is in order. She is such an all around great girl so we don't understand why she is still here! It's time for her to make her break from the prison program and become a great addition to your home! Apply to meet her today! Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.April 22, 2025, 2:25 pm
