Something You Don't See Every Day: Circus-Trained Dogs At Pflugervile Public Library

Pflugerville, TX -- How many times have you visited the public library only to think to yourself: "You know, dogs performing tricks, a parrot and puppets would really spice things up."

Well, your prayers are answered. This Saturday, July 16, dog trainer and former circus performer Darren Peterson is scheduled to bring his troupe of performing dogs to the Pflugerville Public Library. These are rescue dogs that have been specially trained to entertain the masses.

"Come see dogs performing tricks, a talking parrot, puppets, giant bubbles, juggling and other circus acts from 2 p.m. to 3 p.m.," city officials beckon in an advisory on the municipal website. It's fun for all ages, they add.

The event is scheduled from 2 p.m. to 3 p.m. at the library located at 1008 W. Pfluger St. It's free!

We've come a long way from when libraries were quite places of study and contemplation, and that gives us paws. But such event really do give public libraries a new leash on life, and we're all fur it.
