Lambert Honors Her Furry Friend By Advocating For Pet Adoption

Lambert rescued Louise and her sister, Thelma, in 2016. She shared their story with her followers, encouraging them to open their homes to a shelter pet this summer.

The first day I ever brought them to the farm in TN (they rode on the bus on a day drive from Dallas) they were right at home. I have mini horses, chickens and goats and I needed them for protection for the critters. And boy did they do the job. I had 7 years with Thelma who we lost last July and 8 years with this beauty. My Lou Lou polar bear. She loved it when I sang her ‘special songs’ to her.”

There are rescues of every kind y’all,” she said in her tribute to Louise. “You just have to open your heart and be ready for the love they have to give. So please remember this summer while you are home in your back yards with your families to consider bringing home a shelter pet to be part of those memories. They will change your life for the better.”
