Miranda Lambert and her pet pooches led more than 1,000 people, including Nashville mayor Megan Barry, along the first-ever MuttNation March through Music City on June 8. The almost-one-mile march, which was created to raise awareness and funds for shelter pet adoption, started at Nissan Stadium and continued across the pedestrian bridge before it ended in downtown Nashville.

The MuttNation Foundation Adoption Drive at CMA Fan Fair X featured 60 shelter dogs, all of which found new homes with families across 21 states and Canada.

“I am so grateful that all these amazing dogs found their forever homes,” said Miranda. “Marching with so many amazing fans and fellow animal lovers was really a highlight of CMA Fest for me.”
