Today’s Dog of the Day is Moose, submitted by Ryan Casing of the Bone Marrow Processing Lab. “Moose is half Great Pyrenees, half Mastiff. He was in a litter from a farm. He has a very loving/lazy personality. When I try to take him for a walk he stops mid walk and lays down. His favorite hobbies include sleeping, walking around the house at night, and barking at strangers.“
Today’s Cat of the Day is Cece, submitted by Katie Klar of Episodes of Care. “Cece was adopted from the Humane Society. She enjoys sleeping on dirty laundry and meowing loudly and often.”
Pets of the Day — what you need to know
The Vanderbilt University Medical Center Pets of the Day are included in regular editions of the MyVUMC News newsletter, which is posted twice a week by VUMC News and Communications.
The pets are selected from the hundreds of entries sent to the VUMC Voice Pet Photo Contest.
For those who submitted a photo to that contest, watch MyVUMC News for Pets of the Day, and in addition, regular collections of pet photos are posted to the VUMC Voice site. You can see them all here: https://news.vumc.org/section/voice/pets-vumc/.
If you have a pet you would like to nominate for Pet of the Day, the next Pet Photo Contest submission period is coming up later this year, and will be announced in MyVUMC News.
Moose and Cece were featured in the June 17, 2025, edition of MyVUMC News.
