VUMC Pets of the Day: Mylo and Daisy

Today’s Dog of the Day is Mylo, submitted by Marselle Rasdall of Ophthalmology and Visual Sciences.

Today’s second Dog of the Day is Daisy, submitted by Marisa Gunthert of One Hundred Oaks GI. “Daisy is a three year old yorkie/schwarzer mix who was found as a small puppy. Her favorite pastimes are getting belly rubs and protecting her house from everyone that passes on the sidewalk.”

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.

Mylo and Daisy were featured in the Nov. 20, 2025 edition of MyVUMC News.
