Invitation: FURRY Delight Awaits You!

Get ready to unwind, destress and experience the magic of therapy dogs!

Are you ready for some pawsitive vibes and stress relief? Join us for our dog therapy sessions, tailored just for you!

The Department of Library Services (DLS) is teaming up with TOP Dogs to embark on a furry adventure, bringing you animal-assisted therapy right before the dreaded exam season hits.

Studies show that even a mere 5 minutes of interaction with therapy dogs can melt away stress and induce relaxation.

TOP Dogs' mission is to spread comfort and companionship to those in need, including hospitals, care facilities and schools. These therapy dogs are carefully chosen, impeccably trained and dedicated to offering emotional support. They are the epitome of calm, friendliness and good manners, officially registered with esteemed therapy dog groups like TOP Dogs.

With this initiative, the DLS is putting your emotional well-being first as we approach the stressful exam period.
