Isn't it "cries?"

You wear me out.

My heart doesn't have to go out for her. F her.

Didn't watch it, but give us your explanation of why it was "so sincere".....

I think Oprah is "sincere" and you don't think much of this woman.

Hummmmm, very interesting, Barry!

Next time S.U. wants to get rid of one of my rescue dogs? I'm showin' h im this video.

Poor Ellen. I don't know how anyone could make fun of her for being so genuine and straightforward about this "controversy."

Rescue organizations do tell you about that give-away stipulation though...it's pretty standard, and a way to protect the dogs from continual dumping. Maybe she can convince them that she signs so many contracts per day, she didn't fully read the "fine print?"

Do you even have a heart?

F Oprah! POS.

Ellen is hilarious even if I disagree with just about everything she stands for. She's got talent which is more than you can say for Fat Oprah. What is she good at? Reading cue cards and swivelling her head around. And making $$. Other than that she's a no-talent, pompous hack with an army of fat, zombie housewives ready to laugh at her every word, no matter how un-funny it may be.

Um, this is a fake, superfluous human (barelely one of those) whose only real accomplishment in this life has been to make herself famous by being queer on TV. If you genuinely take this aberration seriously, it's time to sell the TV, join the peace corps, and find out something real about the planet you inhabit, for a change.
More succinctly stated, I agree w/ 6:23------F her. And all of you who think this is important.

Poor Ellen. My heart went out to her, she was so hurt by this incident.

I sure would hate to meet some of you people on the street, you are so, high and mighty, mean and nasty.

Sincere? I don't think that word means what you think it means. Try this one: gul-li-ble - adj. easily deceived or duped.

The rescue organizations are just control freaks. So what she didn't comply with the contract? Fine HER or something. Do a study on the home where the dog went and make a determination but don't just pull the dog from the kid on principal. Clearly they were NOT looking out for the best interests of the dog. They are on a power trip and are control freaks that think THEY are the only ones that can make decisions about a DOG for crying out loud. No wonder people prefer breeders.

This is national news? No wonder nobody watches the alphabet networks for news. She sees her hairdresser everyday?

Gee, 9:44, you wouldn't be an empty-headed liberal, by any chance, would you? When do we start feeling sorry for fish?

I thought man this is going to be a tragic story of homosexuals and aids and death, but noooooooooooo! It's about a dog.....let that sit in.....a D-O-fing-G!!
For the three thousand dollars she spent on that one dog she could buy 100 more dogs, HELL...she could make your own puppy mill and make every little kid in America happy if you wanted.
Get over, lesbo!!!

My heart broke for her...watching her cry proves she is human and her heart hurts when bad things happen to good people. Shame on the Rescue Society she dealt with. The dog had a good home and that should have been good enough. I have more respect for the lady after watching this. Liked her before...like her more now. I hope for those kids' sake they get the dog back.

Seems like she is just trying to get what she wants by creating an army of sympathetic viewers...

What is it about lesbians and dogs anyway?

We had a couple of sweethearts out our way with a whole house and yard full of dogs.

mzchief said...

WOW!
Sad story. However, WHAT type of person turns up at their job blubbering about a dog THEY briefly owned and another family owned for even LESS time.

If your doctor, children's teacher, lawyer or a judge began a meeting/session blubbering about having screwed up and VIOLATED the terms of a contract would you REALLY be about poor pitiful them or be questioning their professionalism and INTELLECT?

Incidentally, it is STANDARD policy of MOST animal rescue/adoption groups to demand the animal be RETURNED to the facility if the person who is adopting the animal changes their mind. Where are the COUNTLESS animals previously adopted by Ellen?

IF she is the type of person who cannot pretend then HOW was she able to move on with the rest of the show without breaking into tears every 10 minutes or so? When my 16 year old dog died last Dec. I was a wreak for a week and would randomly break out in tears. I did not leave the house and avoided people. I still tear up when I think about or talk about my dog, so I AVOID doing such around other people. It is not called pretending it is called acting like an ADULT.

Why can't her hairdresser go to the rescue shelter and adopt the dog now?

She actually has a hairdresser---could have fooled me?

Geez, can't wait to see how she does when something really bad happens? What a hag!

This just makes me mad:

Quote: "As a result of the publicity, Marina Batkis and Vanessa Chekroun received voice mail and e-mail threats of death and arson and were besieged by the media, disrupting business at Paws Boutique store in Pasadena, where they handle the volunteer, nonprofit rescue agency, attorney Keith A. Fink said."

More:

"It's very upsetting to hear that someone is getting those kind of calls," DeGeneres' publicist Kelly Bush said. "Ellen just wants the dog reunited with the family."

Well what did they think was going to happen? If she didn't want the public to be involved, then don't make a public plea!

Hey 4:23 A.M. ----- You from cottondale???????????

How sweet that "Ellen just wants the dog reunited with the family." with two LITTLE girls aged 11 and 12. Evidently, Ellen CONVENIENTLY ignored the fact that Mutts and Moms, the pet rescue organization from which the dog was adopted, does not permit families with children under the age of 14 to adopt small dogs. Iggy, the dog Ellen wrongfully gave away, is a small dog.

Obviously, Ellen is indeed SINCERE about the fact that since she is a celebrity, RULES do not apply to her and her friends and she is willing to employ ANY methods necessary to assure she gets her way.

She's an actress for God's sake...she can turn on the tears at a drop of a hat!

Don't think for one minute this is a true personal tragedy. It's about ratings and publicity. she'll now get picked up by more stations.

Nobody....and I mean nobody pushes around a true California tree hugger or their organizations (gay or not)! Ask the families of the hikers who were eaten by mountain lions...

This is un-news, with all the killing going on around the world. I just farted. Put that on the news.

Iggy Time Line

Sept. 20, 2007 = Ellen adopts Iggy

Oct. 15, 2007 = Mutts and Moms takes Iggy

Soooo, Ellen ONLY had the POSSIBILITY of having possession of Iggy for 20 DAYS, four of which Iggy spent with the vet, leaving 16 DAYS to spend with Ellen. Who knows how many days Iggy spent getting "trained." Exactly how many DAYS did Ellen give the puppy to acclimate with HER family and cats? TYPICALLY it takes 6 to 12 WEEKS to train a puppy. Exactly how many DAYS did the dog spend with the hairdresser's family?

I have had colds that lasted longer than than Iggy did in Ellen's home.

This does indeed sound like ANOTHER celebrity whoring for MORE publicity.

The Devil said...

I would have just taken the cats down to Chinatown and had them cook up a little Meow Goo Gai Pan, and then kept the dog! 3K is a fair price for a registered Brussels Griffen, but you can get a little pussy(cat) for next to nothing!

You know, I brought my dog in and showed her the Michael Vick thing on TV and told her to straight-up! Then they took away His job, His money and His freedom! She has been a total Bitch since then! I don't know what I will do now. She'll probably get a scum bag Lawyer and sue me if Her food is 20 minutes late! Do Humans have Rights anymore?

That is one shallow life. May she enter the main stream with the remainder of us one blessed day.
