Award-winning Dalmatian Hero visits school to calm stressed-out students

Three-year-old Hero, an award-winning Dalmatian, recently visited Swanwick Hall School in Derbyshire, BBC reported. He became a literal “hero” for stressed-out Year 12 and 13 students as he offered them support before their A-level exams. His 17-year-old owner, an A-level student Tilly, accompanied him. Tilly and Hero spent time in the classroom, aiming to help classmates relax amidst exam pressures.

Notably, Hero and Tilly showcased their talents at Crufts 2024, competing in the Post Graduate Dog category. They clinched the top spot in the category, outperforming 23 other Dalmatian dogs to secure the first prize.

Tilly described Hero, saying, “He’s so in tune with everyone’s emotions. He just knows … how you’re feeling. If you’re sad, he’ll just come to you and he won’t leave you alone. He’ll pester you for the whole day until you’re happy and smiling.”

In addition, Tilly said Hero has a wonderful personality and a delightful temperament.

“You see him and it just brightens up your whole day. He’s just so happy, so waggy,” she further stated.

Moreover, Tilly expressed that Hero was an excellent companion for her. Thus, she brought him along to her school to uplift her fellow students’ spirits.

A 17-year-old boy in his final year of A-level studies, Jonny, acknowledged the current pressure of exams but found solace in Hero’s presence. After a challenging exam, Jonny found it comforting to spend time with Hero for relaxation and stress relief.
