Episode 148 - YOU CAN'T DO THAT! DOGS
Today on RÚV English, the latest in a series looking at things which were illegal or impossible in Iceland, until just a few decades ago.
Dogs were effectively banned as pets, until surprisingly recently.
Darren is again at the National Museum of Iceland to speak to Helga Vollertsen, Curator of Ethnology, to find out more.
