Bright-er Side: Pawfect puppies!

By: Sarah Sorochuk, Peak Associate

Life can suck sometimes. Are midterms getting you down, or just the weather? 

Well, all that can come to an end with the Saint John Ambulance therapy dogs to the rescue! These pups are perfect for when you’re down in the dumps. A visit from the most adorable, soft, and cuddly puppies can certainly soothe your stress.

These gorgeous pups visited SFU’s Surrey campus recently and even non-SFU students showed up to give Woody, Matilda, and Fanta a scratch. All three pups had very different personalities and were wonderful friends to students. 

Woody is more of a chill and ‘laxed doggie, who lays on their side enjoying all the attention. As a big white dog who sheds a ton, Woody without a doubt left a whole lot of their fluffy coat behind when they eventually had to go. 

Matilda is also pretty calm, though more active than Woody. Matilda liked to have everyone pet her and give her belly rubs. Which is the key to a good time for any dog! Matilda was also wearing SFU swaga cute SFU hoodie, which she eventually fell asleep in.

And Fanta! I cannot forget about Fanta, who was very social; trying to steal everyone’s attention, while also simultaneously convincing people to give her butt scratches. Her person claimed she was “shameless.” But if you know what you like, why not get someone to help out? Especially since having paws makes it hard to scratch an itch.
