Who Should Get Ellen's Dog?
if left outside for long probably a coyote,they gooble them down cat's too!
I too signed a contract when I adopted my dog. If Ms. Degeneres is willing to break her contract then what was the point of signing it in the first place? She can't just hand the dog over to whomever she pleases. The dog should be returned to the rescue group.
Give it back, in the hope that someone who will be able to care for it can give it a loving home.
My take on this subject: The ladies from Mutts and Moms are running a business on the side of their non-profit organization. This just happens to be a high-end boutique for dogs. Here's my take on the scenario: They give away dogs and then the client feels obligated to buy cuts, treats, and toys at the store. They probably saw dollar signs dance about their heads when Ellen DeGeneres walked into the store. When she gave the dog to her ::gasp:: hairdresser's family, their balloon burst. The rule about no kids under 13 in the home is just plain silly. I have a just turned 14 year old and she is great with animals. There is no magic age...some people don't mature EVER! It seems like these women were looking for an out and found one.
Um, yeah. Ridiculous. If you can't abide by the rules of a contract, don't enter into a contract. Pick up a puppy off the side of the road, from the box that says 'Free'. Those poor babies need a home as well. Then you won't have to deal with some stuffed shirt organization and their contracts. Common sense just isn't too common anymore, is it? They need to start teaching logic in schools again......
Ridiculous. More important things to fight for!!! Give the dog back to the kids and get over yourselves, Mutts and Moms. Gail G., who are you, anyway?? What "real facts?" do those little girls plan to dress up Iggy for tea parties? How dare they?!
Rules apply to everyone, not just the 'not so famous' general public. If the dog did not work out for ellen, then she should have lived up to the written agreement. When you give your word (written or oral) it is honorable to stick to it.
To bad those of you who don't know the real facts are making blanket statements. Maybe if you knew everything, you wouldn't be so quick to judge.
