Darcy Gassaway, Contracts Management. “Jed is a 2 1/2 year old American Staffordshire terrier mix. Jed likes to travel, long walks on the beach and loves to cuddle.”
Deck the hall with fur and cuteness! Whether adding a special element to holiday decorations (we’re looking at you, CatCat), walking in a winter wonderland or cozying up by the fire, these VUMC pets add to the joy of the season.
This is the fifth installment of photographs submitted by VUMC employees to the 2023 VUMC Voice Pet Photo Contest. Hundreds of pictures were submitted for the contest, and while we won’t be able to use all, or even most, of the pictures we received, we hope to showcase a good sample of the best of the beasts.
Remember, the top prize offered in the contest is a photo of your pet in VUMC Voice.
If you missed sending in an entry this year, and your pet is peeved about it, please reassure him or her that there will be a future VUMC Voice Pet Photo Contest, but explain that the deadline for entries for this year has passed, and no more pictures will be accepted. We hope your pet understands.
Watch for the next installment of VUMC Voice‘s Pets of VUMC 2023 — coming soon.
