Grand Ole Opry helps Miranda Lambert’s Mutt Nation

The Grand Ole Opry joined forces with Miranda Lambert’s MuttNation Foundation last week to promote pet adoption and to send several four-legged friends straight from the home of country music to loving homes of their own. The Opry family fell particularly hard for a labrador/terrier mix named Charlie and decided to welcome him to the fold, with a number of Opry staffers sharing responsibility for his well-being. Before making his Opry stage debut in Miranda’s arms on Tuesday (October 6th) night, Charlie had been found along with his two littermates dropped on someone’s property in rural Okalahoma. A good samaritan drove them to Lambert’s Redemption Ranch in early July, and the three puppies were among those that made the trek to Music City last weekend. All three found Nashville homes. Throughout October, Opry guests are invited to use the code “PAWS” when purchasing Opry tickets to designate a portion of those ticket proceeds benefit MuttNation.
