🐾 CVM PET OF THE WEEK: It's time for another fluffy feature highlighting the pets of CVM students, faculty and staff.

Meet June, a 7-year-old German Shepherd with an army of Lamb Chop toys and a voracious appetite. ✨🐕✨

During the summer of 2020, second-year DVM student Ella Hayes noticed something moving in the water while watching the sunset at her family's lake house. A true animal lover, she called out to the mysterious creature, and it started moving toward her. June emerged from the water, and Ella could see she was significantly underweight.

After checking with nearby neighbors and the local veterinarian and humane society, Ella claimed her as her own. The two have been constant companions ever since.

"June is a very funny girl with a big personality," Ella said. "She is truly my best friend and one of the most important parts of my life."

A 1966 graduate of the CVM, Dr. Rumph joined the faculty in 1971 and has since taught more than 6,000 students in the classroom and anatomy lab. He won numerous teaching awards during his tenure and contributed significantly to expanding anatomy teaching resources, including plastination of specimens that are still used by students in the lab today.

✨ CVM SPOTLIGHT: Today we're highlighting Sisi Johnson, a veterinary technician at the Auburn University Veterinary Clinic. 🩺

Sisi recently received a Staff Recognition Award, which honors CVM employees who demonstrate excellence in their work and interactions with others.

Known for her compassion and dedication, Sisi has earned the trust of both clients and colleagues. In fact, many clients schedule appointments specifically when she'll be working. She has a way of putting both pets and their people at ease and goes above and beyond in mentoring and teaching students.

"Sisi is encouraging to everyone and ALWAYS willing to help when asked, that is if she has not offered herself already," her nominators said. "I believe she truly helps make the hospital better."

Please join us in congratulating Sisi on this recognition! 👏

We're excited to partner with eight Auburn University colleges to help create healthier, more resilient communities right here in Alabama. 🤝🌎🐾

Supported by a $15.3 million allocation from the State of Alabama, the Auburn University Health Transformation Collaborative has been established to improve health in rural Alabama.

Our role is to contribute a One Health perspective, addressing urgent rural health challenges by considering the inextricable links between human, animal and environmental health. We plan to do this by:

🎓 Awarding Public & One Health undergraduate scholarships to students from rural Alabama counties.
🩺 Retaining veterinarians in rural Alabama by providing loan repayment fellowships.
🥼 Awarding students paid fellowships for opportunities in rural communities.
📚 Supporting faculty who will provide rural training programs and deliver coursework tailored to rural health.

🐶 CVM PET OF THE WEEK: This week, we’re highlighting one of the friendliest dogs of the CVM. 👋

Meet Cousteau, DVM student Shana Boyd’s 3-year-old golden lab. Shana met Cousteau while training him through her undergraduate program and later adopted him when he turned one.

Whether he's fetching tennis balls or showing off his favorite trick — a perfect wave — Cousteau lives life full of energy, ready to tackle life by Shana’s side. 💛

"I truly don't know how I would be getting through veterinary school without him,” Shana said.
