Playing with puppies at YSU


YOUNGSTOWN — Youngstown State University’s Puppy Palooza attracted stressed-out students to frolic with furry friends.

From 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. today, students were welcomed to the awning outside Andrews Student Recreation and Wellness Center to play with Animal Charity Humane Society’s dogs for an end-of-the-semester celebration – and to help relieve some stress during finals week.

Although freshman student Sydney Tillman said playing at Puppy Palooza was furthering her procrastination of her finals work, she felt “awesome.”

“I wish there were more Puppy Paloozas throughout the semester,” she said. “It just feels good.”

It’s a semiannual campus event.

Alyssa Kubec, freshman, said she likes seeing this practice on a college campus.
