NEWBURGH- For Mount Saint Mary College students finishing up their classes this week, a group of therapy dogs provided a stress-busting break on Wednesday, December 6.

These precious pups were sweeter than Christmas candy for the Mount community. Research has indicated that watching, petting, or talking to an animal can lower blood pressure and heart rate.

The animals came to the Mount via Hudson Valley Paws for a Cause. The popular event has become a tradition at the college.
