For the Love of Dogs Vermont, a non-profit organization dedicated to rescuing and rehoming dogs in need, has recently been selected as a recipient of a $5,000 grant from Miranda Lambert’s MuttNation Foundation. This grant will be used to cover veterinary expenses such as visits, appointments, surgeries, and heartworm treatments for the dogs under their care. Carole Moore, a spokesperson for the organization, expressed their gratitude for being chosen as a grant recipient, stating that they are “beyond honored” to receive this support.
MuttNation Foundation, in partnership with Tractor Supply Company, has been donating over $250,000 annually to animal shelters across the nation through their Mutts Across America program. Each year, one outstanding shelter or foster-based rescue in every state, including Washington, DC, and a “Wildcard” pick, is selected to receive a surprise $5,000 grant. For the Love of Dogs Vermont was chosen as Vermont’s recipient for 2024, recognizing their dedication to helping senior dogs, special needs dogs, large dogs, and pit mixes find loving homes.
The selection process for Mutts Across America is rigorous, with MuttNation conducting thorough research to identify organizations that go above and beyond in caring for and advocating for animals in need. The recipients are not informed in advance and receive the grant as a surprise, showcasing the foundation’s commitment to supporting deserving shelters and rescues across the country.
In addition to the grant received by For the Love of Dogs Vermont, other organizations in different states are also being honored for their exceptional work in the animal welfare field. This initiative highlights the importance of recognizing and supporting the efforts of shelters and rescues that play a crucial role in saving and improving the lives of animals in their communities.
The grant from MuttNation Foundation will undoubtedly make a significant impact on For the Love of Dogs Vermont’s ability to provide essential medical care for the dogs in their care. This financial support will help ensure that these animals receive the necessary treatments and procedures to improve their health and well-being, ultimately increasing their chances of finding forever homes.
Overall, the collaboration between MuttNation Foundation and Tractor Supply Company through the Mutts Across America program serves as a beacon of hope for animal shelters and rescues nationwide. By shining a spotlight on the tireless efforts of organizations like For the Love of Dogs Vermont, this initiative not only provides much-needed financial assistance but also raises awareness about the importance of animal welfare and adoption.
