Today’s Dog of the Day is Rudy, submitted by Stephanie Michel of Vanderbilt Psychiatric Hospital. “Rudy is always the first to jump into the car for every road trip or car ride!“
Today’s Cat of the Day is Oliver, submitted by Cynthia Jakes of Behavioral Health Outpatient Clinics. “Oliver was adopted from the Dickson County humane Society three years ago. He is the boss of the house and loves to have his morning talks with me when I’m getting ready for work.”
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.
Rudy and Oliver were featured in the Feb. 27, 2025, edition of MyVUMC News.
