I really wanted to dedicate this episode to answering some questions from my listeners. I posted on the social media platforms asking if anyone had any questions or concerns that they would like me to address on this episode and the response was overwhelming.

I selected a few questions that I would like to address on todays episode. However, if you are listening and I didn’t have a chance to address your question today, please rest assure that I have reserved your messages and will be addressing your questions on a future episode. So stay tuned.

With that said, many of the questions and concerns that I received had a commonality. This is actually something you will hear me say every time. Even though every situation I read was unique in their own way, they seemed to fall into the category of confusion, on both sides (human and dog)

I know in my very first episode I talk about what anthropomorphism is but with many recent questions arising after the release of my new book, Through the Eyes of a Canine, I decided that this episode should dive deeper into the psychology of this topic and discuss how anthropomorphism has it’s advantages and disadvantages.

This episode strikes me deep in the soul. Featuring special guest, Artist, dog lover and dog life advocate Lise Ellingsen. We discuss the current state of Norway’s dog laws and the actions that are in progress to change them for the better. Norway holds a very personal meaning to me as my blood linage runs deep and distant. My family and I still to this day hold true to our traditions and celebrate our Norwegian culture. However, something was brought to my attention recently about how the dog laws have evolved in this beautiful country.
