It’s a proven fact that stress and blood pressure go down when you pet a puppy. And since finals are just around the corner – not that we need to remind you – the College of Arts and Sciences and Pius XIII Memorial Library are trying to help you cope with the hectic time with the wagging tails of C.H.A.M.P. (Canine Helpers Allow More Possibilities), a local volunteer organization of therapy dogs and their owners. In other words: The puppies are back! The puppies are back!

The canines’ wiggle their way to Pius from 2-4 p.m. today, Monday, Dec. 12, and from noon to 2 p.m. Tuesday, Dec. 13, the study day before finals. The dogs will be located on the second floor and the lower level of the library.

A full line-up of cuddly friends can be found here.

Find out more information about the C.H.A.M.P. dogs online and remember to visit. Come on,  *baby talk* “who can say no to that face…?”
