We Have a Dream…
It began with an idea…
many years ago, sitting side by side at our kitchen table.
Inspired by a visit to the Best Friends Animal Sanctuary in Southern Utah, and the courage of their activism, we began to dream a vision of our own — to rescue dogs, to give them freedom, and to create a Dog Rescue Ranch where love always wins.
Our first rescues,
our beloved Natasha & Dakota (NAKOTA), sparked the dream.
Then came Toshi, Prince, Bailey “Boo,” and King.
Each one taught us more about resilience, forgiveness, and the power of unconditional love.
Along the way, we were blessed to meet Tish, a local animal activist who took us under her wing and taught us the ropes of rescue.
Together, many more joined the family: Spencer, Orchid, Nico, Chapo (HIT LA) , and countless others whose names live forever in our hearts.

Then, a dream became reality. We secured our own land, the Boho Dog Rescue Ranch — a place where every dog can heal, run free, and begin again.
And soon after, another dream came true: we partnered with the founder of FurryTail Endings, who fearlessly walks into high-kill shelters in Los Angeles and pulls dogs off death row.
Some are fostered, some adopted, and others find their way to our ranch on a Freedom Rescue Mission.
Through her heroism and the support of her rescue partners — La Belle Foundation, The Animal Pad, and Sandy Dog Rescue — she found homes for 8 puppies Boho Dog rescued from an Indian reservation kill shelter.
Our rescue journey has also grown through powerful collaborations. We’ve welcomed dogs from Baja Street Dogs, partnered with Thrive Animal Rescue, and hosted adoption events with Del Mar Dog Rescue — all united by the same mission: to give dogs a second chance at life.
With rescue as our heartbeat, Ash has created a dog-lover-inspired apparel line — BOHO DOG …
fashion that saves lives.
Every tee, hoodie, and tote is designed with love and donates 100% of proceeds back to the rescue ranch. Style became a lifeline, each piece carrying our mission forward.
But we couldn’t stop there.
As we grew, so did our dream.
We saw how so many rescues struggle —
barely keeping their lights on,
endlessly begging for donations just to survive.
We knew there had to be a better way.
So we began donating our expertise, time,
and creativity to help other rescues.
We design product lines for them,
teach them how to fundraise,
and guide them through
big goal campaigns
using the proven
LaunchBoom method.
Because this dream was never just about us. It was about creating a framework — a way to raise the big funds that make lasting change possible. A way to give every rescue the tools to thrive, not just survive.
This is our mission
This is
our purpose.
And it all began
with a
dream…
Ash & Kris —
Founders of Boho Dog
In honor of all the animals still waiting for love,
safety, and shelter, we are on a mission
to save as many as we can.
This film tells the story of our very first rescues —
Natasha and Dakota, lovingly called NAKOTA.
We found them terrified and desperate,
in their final hours at a high-kill shelter.
We gave them their Freedom Ride,
and the very first stop was the ocean.
For the first time in their lives,
they ran free on the beach —
paws in the sand, tails high,
splashing in the waves.
In that moment, they discovered joy,
freedom, and love.
NAKOTA
are forever in our hearts.
They became more than rescues —
they became our teachers, our family,
and the spark that lit the dream of
The Boho Dog Rescue Ranch.
We carry endless gratitude
for their lives, their love, and the
mission they inspired.
