Miranda Lambert and Brendan McLoughlin hold Amsie and Ava Grace at Williamson County Animal Center.
This week, Miranda Lambert joined forces with Tractor Supply Company, the exclusive retailer for her MuttNation pet line, to spread love to animals shelters across the nation.
The reigning ACM Entertainer of the Year and current quadruple-Grammy nominee visited a Tractor Supply store in Franklin, Tennessee with her husband Brendan McLoughlin on Monday (Dec. 19), where they filled their carts with pet toys and supplies. The couple then made surprise stops at the Williamson County Animal Center, Metro Nashville Animal Care & Control, and the Nashville Humane Association.
“This is the perfect time of year to visit your local animal shelter and to thank them for the great work they do all year long, helping the pets and the communities where we live,” shares Lambert. “These three shelters have been important local partners to MuttNation and to me, personally, and I just wanted to show my appreciation.”

After Lambert visited the three shelters, Tractor Supply Company surprised her and MuttNation with $5,000 in gift cards to spread the love to five additional shelters and rescues that help senior pets and pets with special needs as part of the MuttNation Love Harder initiative.
The five shelters receiving $1,000 Tractor Supply gift cards include: SNARR Northeast (Special Needs Animal Rescue & Rehabilitation) in Brewster, New York; Frankie & Andy’s Place in Winder, Georgia; New Leash on Life in Lebanon, Tennessee; Muttville Senior Dog Rescue in San Francisco California; and Sunflower Sanctuary in Tijeras, New Mexico.
“During this season of giving, all of us at Tractor Supply are thrilled to join with Miranda and MuttNation to support animal shelters and the wonderful work they do in caring for our four-legged friends,” says Kimberley Gardiner, SVP & Chief Marketing Officer for Tractor Supply Company. “Supporting the communities we serve–not only for our customers but also for our pets–is at the core of everything we do at Tractor Supply. Miranda and her team’s commitment to the mission of caring for pets is just remarkable, and we couldn’t ask for a better partner in this worthy cause.”
