I understand that you want to watch content from your dish network app on your Apple TV. I know that it's nice to get your media on a large screen, so I'm happy to provide some direction to help.
You mentioned Home Sharing in your post. Home Sharing is intended for sharing iTunes library media to other devices, and may not work for apps as you expect. You can read more about that here:

It seems that what would work best for you, is AirPlay. If the app is on your iOS device, you can see how to use AirPlay to stream content to your Apple TV here:

If this is content on your Mac, you can see how to stream it to your Apple TV using AirPlay here:

Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities, cheers!
