(MORRISTOWN, NJ) -- Sit! Stay! Get ready to howl! Johnny Peers and his personality-plus canines are coming to Mayo Performing Arts Center on Sunday, February 3 at 1:30pm and 4:30pm. Johnny Peers and the Muttville Comix is a slapstick comedy act like no other. Johnny leads over a dozen dogs through challenging and hilarious tricks as Johnny plays the straight man role in this wonderful show. This event is for the dog lover in all of us stars mostly animals rescued from shelters or pounds.Tickets are $12-$15.

Johnny Peers and the Muttville Comix have appeared in Ringling Brothers & Barnum and Bailey Circus, on the David Letterman show, and are the Animal Planet Pet Star Winners. They have appeared at Disneyland, Busch Gardens, the Big Apple Circus, the Royal Hanneford Circus, and even The White House!

“…the thing I found most endearing was the fact that Johnny uses “mutts” rather than the usual “show dogs”, they are all cute and well trained, the audience get more of a connection because they look like ‘the dog next door.’  Johnny puts on a family-friendly show that all ages find entertaining” –Sally Bilancia, Bangor, ME
