Today’s Dog of the Day is Sophie, submitted by Teresa Davidson of CELA. “Sophie is an 18-month-old Weimaraner who loves to play with other dogs at Go Dog West when her mom is working with CELA. She enjoys eating nature including rocks leaves and grass.”
Today’s Cat of the Day is Olive, submitted by Cierra Allen of Inpatient Sterile Products. “Olive was adopted from a shelter in Lebanon. Don’t let this sweet picture fool you, she a DIVA. She has to have things her way or not at all. Despite her diva tendencies, she’s so sweet and a perfect addition to the family.“
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.
Sophie and Olive were featured in the Feb. 20, 2025, edition of MyVUMC News.
