Garrett the Guinea

DVM student Brooklynn Balic stands with a cow

Hi, I’m Garrett!

I am the official class pet of the class of 2027 cohort from the Montana campus. I made the move to Pullman for our second year and the students take great care of me! Fun fact: I’m named after Dr. Garrett Ryerson, assistant director and teaching professor on the Montana campus, who is also a 2020 graduate of the WSU regional program.

Check out the gallery below of other DVM students with their pets and enjoying our program!
