Ellen and the Dog Drama

Ellen is normally so upbeat and happy that this is one of those sides of her that will likely shock you. It is so sad, seeing her crying on stage. It really makes you feel for her and think ill of this agency that wants to take pets away from loving homes.

The short story is that Ellen is being lynched for not receiving permission to give away a dog she adopted. Ellen adopted a dog (a Brussels Griffon) and spent a lot of money on training the pooch, but in the end the dog did not get along with Ellen’s cats. To make sure the dog had a good home Ellen gave the pup to her hairstylist who has two pre-teen kids. The kids adore the dog. Now, the adoption agency has ripped the dog from the home because Ellen’s contract stated that she would not give the dog up and if she did she would take it back to the agency.

Makes sense right. Forget finding a loving home. Just bring him back to the cold cage in the agency.

Well now the story becomes more interesting. TMZ has obtained information that Ellen never even submitted an application to be able to adopt the dog. A home inspection that is supposed to be mandatory was also waived. So, apparently the agency gets to pick and choose what part of the procedures they follow.

If you’re thinking that the agency took the dog because there were young kids in the home that’s not the case. The agency has allowed people with kids to adopt dogs. Furthermore, these kids are 12 and 13 years old.

The agency, Mutts and Moms never changed the microchip in the dog’s neck either apparently. When the police checked the chip they found that the dog was not registered to Ellen or the new family, but rather Mutts and Moms.

You can see the clip of Ellen pleading and apologizing for her mistakes below.
