Today’s first Dogs of the Day are Wrigley and Stella, submitted by Audrey Cordaro of Radiology. “Wrigley and Stella are both goldendoodles and they are inseparable.”
Today’s second Dogs of the Day are Light and Saaya, submitted by David Chirinos of VWCH Emergency. “Meet Light (black poodle) and Saaya (white poodle). they are both 4 years old and love long walks in the park. Light knows how to find his sister if she ever gets lost. Saaya on the other hand wants to just smell the flowers.”
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.
Wrigley, Stella, Light and Saaya were featured in the Dec. 23, 2025, edition of MyVUMC News.
