DAYTON, Ohio (WDTN) – Service dogs in training with 4 Paws for Ability visited Wright State University Tuesday to visit with students dealing with the stress of finals week.

Organizers plan for the dogs to visit campus at the end of each semester as a way to give students a study break and a way to de-stress from their exams.

“It’s just something fun for the students to do, because they see them around campus and we’ll have them walk around, but a lot of them don’t have time to stop and pet the dogs. They’re usually just rushing to class or something like that, so this is just somewhere all in one spot and people can just come and pet and love on the dogs,” says Krishel Stout, co-handler at 4 Paws for Ability.

The visit from the dogs have been happening for students for the past couple years.
