🌟 Join us for an unforgettable evening to help support dog parents and save dogs! 🌟

We are thrilled to invite you to American Dog Society's first annual charity gala, an enchanting night dedicated to supporting dog parents and helping dogs. 🐾✨ Hosted by American Dog Society Florida Georgia Regional Board, this event promises an evening of elegance, entertainment, and heartwarming moments as we come together to celebrate our community. American Dog Society (ADS) is the first and only national charity that focuses on the long-term strategy of connecting and educating dog parents to keep families together.

When: Friday, Jan 9th 2026

Where: Hyatt Regency Coconut Point

City: Bonita Springs, FL

Mission: To lead a community of compassionate and educated dog parents to reduce the number of surrendered or abandoned dogs.

Vision: A world where every dog has a loving forever home.

As a public 501(c)(3) charity, ADS is a preventative and proactive organization that focuses on the problem before dogs go into or back into shelters. In the US each year around 3 million dogs are surrendered or abandoned. Sadly, there are not enough resources to rehabilitate and rehome so many dogs. Your support and the ongoing programs of American Dog Society will continue to improve the lives of dogs, reduce the number of dogs going into shelters, and ultimately reduce the 400,000 dogs that are put down in shelters each year.

With nine regional chapters across the US, we support dog parents to reduce the number of dogs that end up in shelters. ADS offers an educational course, free dog training across the country, and membership to support dog parents. Our gala is an incredible opportunity to make a significant impact on the lives of countless dogs and their families.
