“At Tractor Supply, we’re deeply committed to supporting our communities and caring for companion pets and animals. Partnering with Miranda and MuttNation in our Relief for Rescues fundraiser, now in its second year, makes a life-changing difference for shelter animals affected by natural disasters—a cause close to our hearts,” said Kimberley Gardiner, chief marketing officer at Tractor Supply. “We’re proud of what we’ve accomplished together with Miranda and look forward to what’s to come through this partnership.”

Funds raised during the 2023 Relief for Rescues event were distributed after the fires in Maui, Hawaii, tornadoes throughout Texas, Mississippi, and Tennessee, as well as flooding in Sandusky, Ohio, California’s Central Valley, and Cumberland, Rhode Island.

“Helping shelters and shelter pets recover from a natural disaster is part of our MuttNation mission,” said Lambert. “Partnering with Tractor Supply Company stores across the country for our annual Relief for Rescues fundraiser, along with the support from the tens of thousands of animal-loving people who donate to our cause this week, allows us to provide critical assistance immediately both where and when it’s needed.”

This year’s Relief for Rescues fundraiser will coincide with Tractor Supply’s Pet Appreciation Days, which feature special deals on pet food, treats, toys and accessories, including MuttNation pet products, exclusively available at Tractor Supply. Tractor Supply has introduced several new MuttNation items for 2024, including a Southwest-inspired dog tent with travel bag, a cactus waste bag dispenser with a built-in light, a heavy-duty water and weather-resistant cement dog bowl and more. A percentage of all MuttNation sales goes to the MuttNation Foundation to further support its mission to promote and facilitate adoption of shelter pets.
