D.I.N.E. is a small not-for-profit organization that:
- provides essential
items to dogs in the care of shelters and rescues in the NY
State Capital Region and
- offers community
education to students.
We purchase, assemble and deliver Kuranda beds to dogs
in shelters and rescues, and
donate Kong toys, leashes, collars, crates, high quality food
and other items that will directly benefit the animals. Through these
donations and educational programs, we hope to create community awareness,
increase the quality of life for dogs in shelters & rescues, and increase
adoption. We are
not affiliated with any one shelter or rescue. We simply try to
assist dogs in need everywhere.
Thank you!!! |

The Evolution of D.I.N.E.
"I have been worrying about animal suffering
for as long as I can remember. I became consumed with my
worries to the point of doing nothing. I wanted to go to
shelters to bring treats to dogs but I couldn't bear seeing
heartbroken animals living in cages... so I did nothing. I was
sickened by the idea of someone taking pleasure in forcing
innocent dogs to fight, but the task of trying to do something
about it was too overwhelming... so I did nothing. When I thought
about volunteering for an animal organization, I worried that I
would get pulled into organizational politics... so I did
nothing. When I donated money to animal organizations, I
worried that it would not be spent in the way I had intended... so
I stopped. I've seen starving, sick, abused, neglected, and
homeless dogs and I've helped a few along the way. But it
wasn't in a big enough way. I finally realized that if I could
put as much energy into helping dogs as I put into worrying
about them, I could make a difference in the lives of many.
This is the goal of D.I.N.E."
