Renee Olstead and her dog Ella Fitzgerald sat down with Peta2 and discussed vegetarianism, dog fighting and dissecting animals.

Olstead got motivated to go vegetarian on the set of a sitcom where a character’s lines reminded her of what she was actually eating when she sat down for a burger.

“I was on a sitcom when I was about 12. And they had this one line where one of the characters was vegetarian and she said, ‘No thanks, I don’t eat anything with a face.’ And I just turned white. From that moment I suddenly realized that what I was eating was alive and had a mother and breathed; and it suddenly became so appalling.”
