At MaM’s request they DID fill out an application. They then DID open their home to an inspection. That is how MaM got inside the home to take the dog in the first place.

Of course the attorney for MaM would say otherwise. That’s what he’s supposed to do…make it look like this woman is being picked on. Even the police are saying that they (the police) made a mistake.

We are a nation of laws, and even though this may sound petty and stupid to many, to use the television media as a bully pulpit to get out you want, just because you are rich and famous is just plain wrong.

Ellen and the adoption agency should have settled this in private, instead of making this non-news item blow so far out of proportion. Had any of this happened to you or me, how much news coverage would we get. Just my two cents.

Good luck with your pup and career. With your common sense you should find success. There’s not much of that out in Lala land.

And to the lady above with her “Ellen has to follow the rules like every one else”: oh for God’s sake, get a life. Seriously, with all the problems in the world, we should worry about friggen Ellen giving the dog to her HAIRDRESSER’S two kids, where it clearly would have had a wonderful life? So what that she didnt follow the rules. Big deal, get the stick out of your ass. The rules were a bunch of bureaucratic bullshit red tape. I see why they were in place, and if they needed to be employed for the safety or welfare of an animal, it makes sense to be able to legally protect the animal through a contract.
However, that’s not what happened here. If anything “Mutts and Moms” has been detrimental to the welfare of this dog.

People in LA are so strange sometimes, and this miserable jealous bitch who clearly has some bizarre issue with Ellen or maybe famous people in general, has acted in a disgusting and selfish manner. It makes me sick, and you can be sure, that her next move will be to sue Ellen, and that’s probably why she hasn’t given the dog back. She’s a gross pig; plain and simple. Why mince words?

This is why would be generous people live in fear of trying to do something nice, because disgusting jealous and greedy people take advantage. Ultimately the next really wealthy and powerful person who could make a difference in a needy dog’s life is going to recall this incident and think twice. That’s the real tragedy in all of this. That woman has done a huge disservice to animals by behaving this way, and she should be ashamed of herself. She’s a crazy, lowlife bitch, and as a real animal lover, I am not afraid to say it, nor should anyone else be.

And Mutts and Mom’s Lady, if you’re reading this. Im sorry that your life is so small, that you had to make a huge scandal out of what was, Im sure, only intended to be a simple act of kindness. Don’t be so heartless; you wretched scum bag witch. Give the fucking dog back, and rot in hell. You’re a pig (and not in a good way)

My two girls were born into a home where our “first” child was an 8 pound mixed dog. Never once was either the dog or the children in danger from each other. This is just another case of people being rigid and using rules to run their lives instead of common sense.

I think she’s more upset about the way it was handled and the trauma caused to the dog and the family. Had the agency let them fill out an application and evaluated them, none of this would have happened.

And nothing is stopping the animal rescue from giving their side of the story, least of all Ellen. I think she’d be thrilled if the other family would be allowed to fill out the app and be evaluated so they can get their dog back.

The dog was happy, the family was happy, why screw it up?
