Miranda Lambert unveils her new documentary film which showcases her passion for dog adoption and highlights the renovation of her hometown animal shelter in support of PEDIGREE Brands See what good food can do campaign on June 26, 2014 in New York City. As part of the campaign, one shelter in each of the continental United States will receive much needed improvements to its facilities, and the Brand will donate PEDIGREE food to help their dogs look and feel their best while waiting for their forever homes.
Miranda says that it all started when she met the head of animal control in Tishomingo. She was invited to see the existing shelter and what she saw broke her heart. She shared, "I was like, 'What shelter? There is no shelter.' It broke my heart. I called my mom, crying, and I was like, 'We have to do something in Tishomingo. There’s nothing.'"
MuttNation mobilized and Pedigree stepped in to help, bringing over 50 volunteers in from all over the country to build. They spent two days, working side by side with Miranda and her parents, to improve the shelter. By the time they were all done, there was a play yard, an agility course, tires, stairs and plenty of things to keep the dogs active and healthy.
The next big hurdle was food - where to get the right food to keep their furry guests well fed. Again, Pedigree stepped up. Miranda thought that their offer was "a load" but they surprised her by saying that they could have all they want "for a long time." It turns out that Pedigree has donated over 20 million pounds of food since 2008.
