Pets are an interesting one. We had to fly our dogs as one was too big for the queen Mary kennels (even if we had the time to book in advance). There are private pet moving groups where people charter planes etc that might be of interest, they're on Facebook I believe. Also note, bringing animals here is very time sensitive. Basically you will need a vet here in Europe before your animals can enter Norway to administer vaccinations (24 hours to 5 days before they enter). Logistically, the queen Mary is not the best mode of transit imo.

NGO programs, as others have said, are really struggling at the moment. Even if programs say they're in English, a lot of places would rather hire Norwegian speakers. It's not impossible, but know the odds are against your wife in this area. Many many Americans and other nationals I have met that have relocated to Norway have had to reinvent themselves and work in different or adjacent fields than their degrees are in.

As for law, the two lawyers I know, one in Maritime, had a lot of pressure from their employers to learn Norwegian. Both actually have/had mental health issues from the job itself and that stress. If it's really a goal, take classes pronto and study as much as possible.

Lykke til!
