Episode notes

This week, Ella and Alexis take a dive (get it?) into the folklore behind mermaids and dog-people. Of course, by dog-people we mean half-human-half-dogs like the Lupari in Doctor Who, not just people that LIKE dogs. Plus, Ella gives us an animal update on her trip to the Scottish Highlands and we have a modified Ready Pet Go from Erin about her London fox sightings!

Also an update since recording: Alexis has learned that there ARE occasionally foxes in NYC!
