'I truly believe she was consciously knowledgeable about how she was helping me.
During the conversation, Susanna was visibly distracted by Inka, who was sat next to her on the sofa and being playful.
The host petted and laughed as the dog licked her face while James continued to talk about his close relationship with his late pet and how she helped him when he was struggling.
However, at one point during the interview, Susanna admitted: 'I've barely listened to a word you have said.'
She explained: 'I am in the moment with Inka, that unfortunately means that I'm not in the moment with anyone else.'
James and Ed laughed in response and went on to discuss the benefits of dogs.
It comes after a previous instalment saw Good Morning Britain fans rage as Susanna Reid and Ed Balls 'talked over each other during a rubbish debate'.
Joining them on the programme was Kevin Maguire and the Daily Mail's Andrew Pierce.
However, the instalment saw Susanna and Ed get stuck into a heated discussion about the issue of fly tipping.
'My thing, bins on streets,' Susanna exclaimed.
'She wants a personal bin outside her house,' Ed interrupted, before Susanna added, 'No I have a personal bin like every resident does.'
The conversation continued and some viewers took to social media to share their thoughts and posted on X: 'This debate is a load of rubbish #GMB.'
'What the f*** is Ed going on about #gmb.'
'Do they all need to talk over each other #gmb.'

Medics issue patient safety warning over union's approach to strikes
Top medics have urged the British Medical Association (BMA) to suspend its guidance advising doctors not to disclose strike plans to employers. The Academy of Medical Royal Colleges said that withholding this information risks patient safety as it makes it extremely difficult for health service leaders to maintain adequate patient care. Resident doctors are set to begin a five-day strike on Friday after pay talks with the government broke down, with the BMA seeking a 29 per cent pay rise. Hospital leaders anticipate having to cancel some operations and appointments, despite NHS England 's mandate to continue routine care, with one A&E in Cheltenham considering reducing services. The health secretary, Wes Streeting, described the strike action as 'completely unjustified', while the BMA argues the government's pay offer is insufficient.

My son got a cramp in his leg while playing laser tag at a birthday party... the cause has broken our hearts
A family's life 'completely changed' when they discovered their beloved seven-year-old son's cramps - a symptom of a rare genetic disease - had been misdiagnosed as autism for three and a half years. Little Evan, who lives in Maidstone, Kent, was only told he had the debilitating condition on February 8 this year after going to a laser tag birthday party with friends. Within 15 minutes his calf muscle went into a cramp rendering him unable to join in - but his mother Laura Winter said this time it was much worse than the leg cramps he had experienced up to then. Ms Winter took her son to the GP and he was referred for a blood test leading the family to receive a call saying Evan needed to be taken urgently to A&E. Following further tests a doctor told the family he believed Evan had a condition called Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) - a severe inherited disease that typically begins at age four and progresses rapidly, causing muscle loss and resulting in difficulties standing up. The family is now raising money through a GoFundMe page to try to offer young Evan a 'normal' life. Speaking to MailOnline, Ms Winter said: 'Evan would sometimes say he hated walking and it was thought to be a result of his autism because he was on his tiptoes a lot. 'He holds himself really rigid and is quite tense which was seen as another symptom.' Ms Winter explained the severe cramp at a birthday party occurred just days before Evan's seventh birthday. Ms Winter was shocked to discover she had passed on the faulty DMD gene to her son as she was not aware of any family history involving the condition She said herself and her husband held hands 'very tightly' when receiving news of the diagnosis and it was a 'very quiet drive home'. Ms Winter added: 'Sometimes it feels like we're just living in a parallel universe and it will all just end soon. 'If our little boy had had a blood test following his first appointment with the community pediatrics team three and a half years ago we'd have known a lot earlier.' The doting mother described her son as 'hilarious' and 'such a funny little boy'. She added: 'He absolutely loves dinosaurs and the Jurassic world. He's so funny and sweet and loving - he's very well loved by everyone who meets him. Everyone he meets he just fills with dinosaur fact after dinosaur fact.' Ms Winter was shocked to discover she had passed on the faulty DMD gene to her son as she was not aware of any family history involving the condition. She said: 'Until recently, we were a "normal" family, living a simple but "normal" life with our two beautiful children, Amelie and Evan. We felt blessed beyond belief to have two happy and healthy children.' The family are now trying to raise money to help Evan with his condition saying they are 'embarrassed' at having to turn to their friends, family and the public for help. A GoFundMe page organised by Ms Winter reads: 'As Evan reaches his teenage years and early adulthood, he will become fully reliant on us for absolutely everything as the degeneration in his muscle accelerates. 'The caveat, we can't afford a home that can be made suitable, despite being a two working parent household, with local prices of properties that could be adapted marketing for between £500-600,000. 'We can't increase our working hours and miss precious time with our boy. We can't move to a cheaper area as we have our support networks, friends, children's school and medical teams locally. We are essentially stuck in a system that is broken and cannot offer any assistance. 'We can't save our beautiful little boy from this awful, horrendous disease but we will try with everything we have to give him a safe and comfortable home, where he can have the best childhood we can give him.' Ms Winter told MailOnline Evan's symptoms had 'never been signifcant enough to put into Google' and she believed there should be more awareness around DMD. 'If parents feel like there's something not quite right - trust your gut, push harder,' she concluded.

Mabel, 29, hits back at nepo baby claims as she admits 'I work hard every day' in candid interview about growing up with her famous parents
She's the daughter of eighties pop star Neneh Cherry and legendary producer Cameron McVey. Mabel, in recent years, has insisted she's made a successful career in music without the help of her famous parents. And in a new interview with Michael Dapaah on Comfortably Speaking, the singer has doubled down on nepo baby claims as she declared 'I work hard every day'. Mabel, 29, said: 'It was like a play on everything really, the expectations I've always had on myself. 'I'm still so hard on myself and I work really hard at it every day, I try to be kinder to myself, but it was definitely initially about the things that I felt about myself and yeah the expectations I had set for myself from a super young age. 'And then also about like coming from a family of musicians, maybe the expectations that people had of me, good for bad, do you know what I mean. 'Like people either set the bar here or they set the bar here, because they're like "oh well you're a nepo baby so like you're s*** basically", do you know what I mean?' The singer, full name Mabel Alabama-Pearl McVey has long been surrounded by musical royalty. Her mother Neneh, 61, rose to fame with her 1989 album Raw Like Sushi and hits Buffalo Stance and Manchild. Mabel's father Cameron, 68, is a legendary producer behind acts like Massive Attack and All Saints. Mabel also opened up about nearly ending her music career entirely as she struggled navigating her twenties. She said: 'It wasn't possible (to keep up with the pace), I mean it nearly like ended the relationship with what I loved the most, music, because it was impossible. 'It is impossible to deliver, in my opinion, an authentic creative product, because that's what it is when you're in the business. 'And also be okay and have enough life to live to be able to create the authentic product if you're having to do it every eight weeks. 'And you're also in your early 20s and you're trying to figure things out because who knows who they are or what they're doing.' Mabel first made waves in 2017 with her breakout hit Finders Keepers, and went on to release her platinum-selling debut album High Expectations in 2019. In 2020, she won the Brit Award for British Female Solo Artist. In 2018, Neneh spoke about nurturing her daughter Mabel in the music industry, revealing she is in awe of her. The songstress spoke of the then 21-year-old's success and reflected on motherhood, in an interview with the Evening Standard Magazine admitting she wasn't always 'emotionally accessible'. She said: 'Mabel is unbelievable and so focused and it's hard out there. 'She gets up sometimes and she's doing two or three sessions a day. I'm in awe of her and so I try to support her with basic mum things, like making her a take-out lunch.' Mabel previously insisted she doesn't want her parents' help when it comes to her own music career. 'When I was in my teens, and was like, 'I really want to do music',' she told the publication. I felt quite embarrassed by being my mum and dad's daughter. I thought, 'People will never take me seriously".'
