Therapy dogs help Carthage College students de-stress before finals

KENOSHA, Wis. (CBS 58) -- Taking finals can be a stressful time for college students. Students at Carthage College in Kenosha had a fun study break on Tuesday to help them cope.

Some therapy dogs came to campus to help students take their minds off studying.

"You have to write a lot of essays, so this is a calming moment for us," one student said.

"It's really nice to see other dogs when you're missing your dog when you're at college," said another student.

Finals at Carthage don't start until next week but students tell us that saying hi to the dogs was a nice distraction.
