VANCOUVER — You can take out almost anything from libraries these days, but this one requires a leash.
Eight therapy dogs will be available to borrow from the Canine Library on Saturday for 15-minute outings as part of Vancouver’s Poetry in Parks initiative.
Candie Tanaka of the Vancouver Public Library says people will have an opportunity to sit with a dog and a handler and either read from provided material or bring their own.
She says the event is a chance for those who don’t own a dog to interact with one.
