Campus dogs have been a part of the university's activity since 2018. The activities are coordinated by Movi and Student Life in cooperation with the Kennel Club.  

Campus dogs are calm and approachable. The dogs are trained and tested for the activity. The dogs’ owners are also present at the meetings and can act as support and interpreters.  

Campus dogs can contribute to the well-being of students for example by relieving stress and being present. The dogs do not judge anyone and meet everyone without prejudice. All you need to do is to show up, pat the dogs and relax.
