Miranda Lambert and her husband Brendan McLoughlin are nearing their one year wedding anniversary on January 26th.

Before the couple were married, Miranda had one deal-breaker. She told Taste of Country, “When I first met him, I realized I looked a little bit like a crazy dog lady, which is fine with me, because that’s what I am."

Miranda continued, “I was like, ‘Hey, if you don’t like dogs, that’s kind of a deal-breaker.” And he passed the test, she offered, "He actually loves them to death."

Lambert of course is known for being an advocate for and friend to any dog that needs help. Her MuttNation Foundation finds homes for animals in need. Every year during CMA Fest in Nashville, she hosts a downtown dog walk that raises awareness and funds for the non-profit. marriage
