March 2018 Paws for Stress

March 12, 2018

Held during midterm week at Virginia Commonwealth University's Monroe Park Campus, this continuation of the Paws for Stress event lets students take a break from studying and get to meet several Dogs On Call therapy dogs. Despite the dreary weather, hundreds of students were able to enjoy the company of the therapy dogs.

Dogs On Call therapy dog Dahlia, a German Shepherd with a coat of shades of brown and tan, turns her head to the right to look at the camera. Dahlia's blue Dogs On Call vest is visible.
