Miranda Lambert is launching an awesome new campaign for her foundation, MuttNation, with one of her musical heroes, Emmylou Harris.
The campaign was initiated in order to feature:
“Stories and pictures of shelter pets that are so easy to love, but harder to get adopted — special dogs with special needs, big black dogs, senior dogs and pit-mixes.”
To kick-off the new campaign, she sat down with Emmylou to talk about the importance of adopting older dogs and dogs that have special needs.
Emmylou has a charity herself, Bonaparte’s Retreat, which takes in senior dogs, big dogs and dogs with medical issues and helps rehab them if needed in order to find them a forever home.
She said she does it because:
“They bring so much into your life, somehow. Maybe it’s cause I’m an old dog myself, you know, that I appreciate old age and maybe that we need a little more comfort and care.”
I don’t know how Miranda is managing the upcoming release of her new album, the opening of her new bar Casa Rosa in Nashville, and all of her incredible charitable efforts at the same time, but it’s super cool to see these two team up together for such a good cause.
Hopefully, this means lots of new homes for dogs that really need them.
