Exam stress is no joke. Pair that with Malta’s sweltering summer heat and you’ve got one very unpleasant concoction.

Luckily for Maltese university students, KSU (Kunsill Studenti Universitarji) and the Faculty for Social Wellbeing have thought up an excellent way of curbing this stress – therapy dogs!

That’s right – for the first time in University of Malta history, students can take a break from intense studying to enjoy a service dog session.

KSU has, as of yet, announced a total of two service dog sessions, one taking place on 16th June, and another that took place earlier this week.

From the looks of it, the service dogs did their job extremely well…

“Giving our students some much needed respite from their studying… service dogs came to visit us at the University of Malta,” the Faculty for Social Wellbeing wrote on social media.

Should you be a student at the University of Malta, make sure to head over to the KSU-PwC Common Room on 16th June between 12pm and 1pm to get some canine love.
