Carrie Underwood has donated $10,000 dollars to the Bideawee Manhattan Animal Shelter in Manhattan, New York.

The shelter was grateful for Underwood’s generous donation, and hopes her fans follow her lead.

“We would hope that Carrie Underwood’s fans, who see that she has a dog already, would be interested in coming to shelter and getting a pet through a shelter as opposed to a pet store or a breeder” said Renee Collins, adoption center manager for Bideawee.

According to Popcrunch, Underwood’s Chihuahua named Ace is set to be the ring bearer in her upcoming wedding.

Watch the clip below to hear Underwood’s thoughts on animal adoption.

Sharing the spotlight with the vegetarian singer is her dog Ace.

“He seems like one in a million, but unfortunately, he’s not,” Carrie says. “Four million great dogs like him end up in shelters and breed rescues every year.”

When it comes to giving back, time is good, but dollars may even be better!

The Daily Beast profiled several celebrities who, through lending their name and face to campaigns and even personal donations, have contributed to their favorite charities.

Vegetarian Carrie Underwood is a featured giver for her donations to the Humane Society, which The Daily Beast estimated to have an annual impact of $236,021.

“The country-music star recently gave $200,000 to the Humane Society, taken from the sales of her recording of the Mötley Crüe song, “Home Sweet Home.” May no good deed go unpunished: Underwood’s ties to the animal-protection group angered hunters. “It is a radical organization that seeks to end hunting and other responsible uses of animals in America,” griped one leading sportsman. After Katrina, Underwood, 26, recorded a television spot for the Humane Society, detailing the plight of pets hurt by the hurricane.”

Of course, you don’t have to be a celebrity to have an impact.

Do you plan to donate your time to an animal organization in your town?

Carrie Underwood has teamed up with Pedigree, a sponsor of her Play On tour, to film a PSA for their adoption drive.

Her four legged friend Ace is also set to make an appearance.

“I can’t imagine life without my dog,” vegetarian Carrie told Pedigree at the shoot, according to Peoplepets.

“Dogs are just beautiful souls that don’t want a thing from you.”

“He’s just so special because he loves me for no reason other than I love him back.”

“He’s smart and he’s fun, and makes me really appreciate all the little things in life because he is a little thing.”

Hope Carrie drives every would be pet owner to the local shelter to adopt.

The PSA debuts on Monday February 15.

DC Fur Free Metro PETA Ad

First lady Michelle Obama may look stunning in PETA’s fur free ads that lined the walls of DC Metro Stations, but did she even want to appear in them?

It has been discovered that the animal rights organization did not get Mrs. Obama’s permission to use her photo in the ad, according to the Washington Post and the White House is calling for the posters to be removed.

“We got a call from the White House counsel’s office,” Ingrid Newkirk, president of PETA said. “We said to them, we’re not selling a coat, only an idea that glamorous beautiful women who you look up to don’t wear fur. . . . We’re honoring her. Lawyers are lawyers, but PETA is honoring her fashion sense.”

“We didn’t expect them to fund it or endorse it. But “she is in the public domain. . . . This is reporting a statement of fact: She doesn’t wear fur. And our opinion: We think that’s fabulous.”

PETA also did not obtain permission to use Carrie Underwood, Oprah Winfrey or Tyra Banks for the ads, although these celebrities have prior connections to the group.

DC Fur Free Metro PETA Ad

PETA has a new anti-fur poster that was unveiled at Washington, D.C. Metro stops today featuring Oprah Winfrey, Michelle Obama, Tyra Banks and Carrie Underwood.

Amazingly, this ad comes with all celebrities wearing their clothing.

And way to go for having one veggie in the group!

Public transportation is the environmentally friendly way to travel, but during December the cold weather can scare even the most enthusiastic tree hugger away from the bus stop and into the car.

Let’s hope this ad reminds the bravest to have compassion for the animals as well as the earth.

And that Tyra stops thinking pork makes vegetables taste better.

You already learned Carrie Underwood likes to chow down on Quorn faux meat products before performing.

But did you know the country music vegetarian beauty also likes to indulge in pizza?

Carrie admits she can’t get enough of the dairy dealer and she told SELF magazine in 2007, “My food indulgences are pizza, and I love… cheese. I have a big problem controlling myself with the cheese.”

Two years later she’s giving SELF readers a recipe for a healthier pizza, with low fat cheese.

You can make it healthy AND vegan by topping it with a non dairy cheese like Follow Your Heart or Teese.
