That's so stupid. If the dog has a loving family to be with, why take it away. Give the other family another dog, and you suddenly have given two dogs a loving home instead of just one.
They shouldn't edit these normal human feelings and reactions on t.v. Let people see that everyone is a regular person famous or not , instead of scripting and editing everything to make things "perfect" .
Ya I totally agree these guys are aren't just rich millionaires with a happy life they have horrible situations where they have to give a dog away. Om being sarcastic btw. Imagine having life so easy that u cry about stupid stuff like this
NuKe Diamond No matter how famous you are, or how much money you have, you will still show normal, human-like emotions. The only people that wouldn’t are people with big heads and too much of an ego. Ellen is the opposite of that.
NuKe Diamond boo you literally have no empathy like what? Ellen feels devastated that she made it so that a family lost the dog they cared for and she feels like it’s her fault. Celebrities are humans too, and they have emotions. Just because someone has money doesn’t make them happy. Ellen has suffered and fought through so much and you saying that it’s stupid that she gets to cry is ignorant and cruel. You are the worst kind of person.
It is their job though. You aren’t supposed to let your emotional state take over in a professional environment. If it worked like that, it would be an entire mess. It’s not hard to just have a little common sense and realise the people in front of a camera obviously have feelings like any other person.
Boi if you they lost a dog that they loved then I would feel guilty dang I got them excited for nothing. I need to go help them out. Not cry during the job. She shouldn't feel like she should cry. To me it shows someone hasn't been using her other emotions that much. Shes been happy so much that the feeling of guilt is enough to make her burst out with streams

The humane society in Canada has the same rules. I guess because of all the effort and money that goes into these pet rescues, they've appointed themselves god over what happens to them forever after. I don't blame them but it does spoil gift giving for people who are kind to animals like Ellen - all the credit and blame goes to animal abusers.
@@ziggilypiggily that's so true. All rescues have that in their contract, that if you can't care for the animal anymore it has to be returned to the rescue. It's unfortunate though that they couldn't have just assessed her friends family and let them keep Iggy. But I guess if that did that, then it would leave precedent for it happening again.
@@ziggilypiggily The reason that shelters do this is because many people have bought animals as "gifts" and then give them away after a week to someone who could possibly not know anything about caring for that animal, not be financially stable enough to cover vet bills, neglectful or abusive homes, etc. Many people toss their pets out onto the street so a lot of shelters actually get old animals coming back in from the street after being adopted. There are so many things to consider when adopting a pet, these are sentient lives at our mercy. It's the shelter's duty to keep these animals safe. In my personal opinion, this situation should have been handled differently. The shelter could have come and interviewed the family and see if the situation was appropriate. To rip the family and dog away from eachother after bonding is just cruel.

Ellen, I'm a social worker, today you have done more for animal's and the gay community than anyone has done because you expressed and showed us how you feel. Your honesty and morality is something that the world needs to emulate.....thank you.
@@v6790 It's a puppy though, she lost her puppy. It's like loosing a memeber of your family. People can hate people, as I don't like many, but pets. They're one of the only things that you can't hate.
Well this is 11 yrs later but I think the family probably just needed to apply & the organization would've approved them. Sounds like the organization was a stickler for policy & the family just needed to follow it's protocol no matter if silly or not, to get the dog back. It seems like more was going on with Ellen. Life can sure be overwhelming at times.
It's actually very difficult, as someone who worked at a shelter, to have someone who has give you the word, and signed a paper with the agrement to keep and protect and love an animal that you rescued and that took so much of your time to take care, to have that person to tell you so late that they give the dog away when you are trying to get some photos or information about the situation of the animal, It's just really BAD. Even if they have a reason like Ellen, is still irresponsible, and make you feel like you are taken as a joke. Why have people signing papers to have fully responsability to take care of an animal, if they are going to do whatever they feel like after? Like I said, Ellen had a good reason, but she was irresponsible for not talking to the shelter before doing something. I'm not sure about what happened with this case, the dog probably return with it's new family, but normally we wouldn't trust someone like that anymore, unfortunately.
Sofía Vertone With the amount of dogs being put down each day because there is too many to rehome do you really think you have some moral high ground? That kind of ridiculous attitude in the face of good families will literally cost dogs their lives. Ellen signed to take responsibility for that dog which she did, giving it to a good family she trusted. I see no reason she should have to contact the shelter who had yielded responsiblity of the dog. Their behaviour was disgusting and childish, if the welfare of the dog was their priority they would have conducted a house check on the new family and left the poor dog alone. Their behaviour tarnishes the image of shelters in general, should be ashamed of themselves.
@@Hayley-kp6wt I really get what you say. I don't know how shelters work in the USA, and if they are all the same, but in Argentina we don't put down animals, even if they stay their whole life on a shelter. That's why we have strictest rules when it comes to adoption, we take care of abandoned and tortured animals every hour, every minute, we take them in, and without ANY help of the State, only from ordinary people. That's why I repeat, I don't know how shelters work at her country, but I can empathize with the hard work they do, and THAT'S why I said that it must be hard even for them to have to do something like that. Without rules se have nothing. Try to comprehend that too, It sounds horrible when Ellen told the story, but this is reality. I have seen so many people that has done something similar to Ellen, telling us that the families adopting an animal that they promised us to take care, are nice and good when in reality they have nothing to give for those poor animals.
This app made me cry. Ellen is always smiling and putting smiles on everyone's faces. To see her soo broke up completely broke me up. I know she was trying to do the right thing. Still love her. Happy she had a heart.
This is honestly really hard for me to watch. It's tough when your used to her being so funny and witty and then seeing her breakdown like this. This must have been a terrible time for her.
I once had a dog that was hit by a car then runned over by it. It happened so quickly that I couldnt believe what happened in front of me. I cried and cried, the people around me thought it was funny. I was made fun of for crying over an animal (not even anyone in my family cared to comfort me ). But all i knew was, I loved that dog and it hurts when you lose someone or something you love. MAy you always be remembered, RIP My COFE.
Jay thanks so much for your kind words and positivity. I'm sadden to hear about the cat as well, but Im glad your brother has a loving nature to take cae of those kittens. I hope you have a splendid day and take care.
No of offense but wouldn't have talked to my family for a long time, I would have even tried to utter one word because that is little bit wrong how they didn't try to comfort you if I was your family I would have comforted you until you stopped crying, Heck I would even get you another dog (but probly won't be the same) with all my money!!
She is very good kind lady she love animals and lots of nice healthy animals living with her love to watcher show she is very funny and sweet thank you for sharing your beautiful video. Bless you
I don't blame Ellen one bit. The rescue organization shouldn't be so concerned with whether or not the person adopting the pet can keep it. As long as it's given a good home, that's all that should matter. So it was wrong for them to come take the puppy away like that. I hope that the girls got their puppy back.
The rescue people are obliged to do this cos they have to trust that the person who signs the form actually keeps the dog. In this case, Ellen was being completely honest, but in other cases, people will adopt these dogs and then sell them to families for money, which is illegal, and that's why they sign the forms and check up on the adopting person/s
She tries to do good for everyone and even this that might seem small to others will feel like a big failure for her xx she has such a big beautiful heart x
Oh please. Welfare organizations ask that people return their animals to them in case the home falls through so that they can ensure that the next home is suitable and a good fit. It’s in a contract you signed, Ellen! And in the best interest of the dog. If you just contacted the welfare organization and explained, before YOU decided to do what you wanted, your hairdresser could have applied for the dog, a home check could have been done and things might have worked out differently. Sobbing on international tv is just emotionally manipulative and passive aggressive. The rules are in the animals’ best interest. So many people give their dogs away to people they think will be ok and the dog suffers or is completely unsuitable for the family. Bottom line, follow the rules like everyone else - they are there to protect the animals first.
Damn, this just may be the only real, sincere apology video on TH-cam Shout out to Ellen for keeping it real. Too many celebrities are too concerned with keeping their image that they will never show their feelings around fans. Truth is: Rich or poor, man or woman, civilian or celebrity... we all cry every once in a while. Stop giving flying fuck about what others think. you never know, they just may be even more insecure than you...
this comment makes you sound so dumb, either that or you didn't notice this was posted in 2007 and back then, getting footage that was shown on TV was not as easy as it is today
I'm a little late on this one...but damn. Can they really do that. I mean why as long as the dog has a loving home and not dying on the street. Wtf kinda contract is it to have to be stuck with a pet if you find out later he doesn't work out and he goes to an even better home. Ridiculous. Shame on them for taking the dog back.
It’s a policy to protect the pet. I’m sure the adoption counselor went over this and the reasons why it’s in the contract. Ellen was doing the loving act yet there’s reasons for rules. If the family had gone through proper adoption process, they may have gotten the dog back. But I haven’t read or heard anything otherwise.
my parents owned a dog rescue, so i grew up with 12+ at any given time. Unfortunatly, there is a reason for that rule, and its a rule we had also. When a family asks to be given an animal we would go to their home and run down a checklist to make sure that that animal was going to a good home. Because some of those dogs came originally from fighting rings, their genetics were highly prized by people who are into that, and to circumvent our inspection and aquire a favored bloodline, they would have someone else adopt, and then just take the dog elsewhere. often we would go yo visit a year later, and the dog would be gone. Or police would raid a fighting ring, only to rediscover a chipped dog already seized and given to us. We were even threatened with jail time because of such things, when wed onky wanted good things. Its for this reason the rule exists. And every forever family was made sure to understand this before they took a dog home. HOWEVER, it was ALWAYS on a case by case basis. Had this happened with us, we would have just asked to see the new home to make sure it was okay, had they not called us to begin with. I cry now, and am heartbroken for ellen and those kids. I have to know what happened...
@@winnermatt1180 Isnt,it amazing how some people will see the flaw in EVERYTHING. Nothing can just be taken as it is, extract a lesson from it...maybe comment on the theme....and leave. But nooo... And this guy above is more concerned with the fact that 10 years jas passed the issue in the video. But.....when you ask to be addressed by Disney -somwthing or other instead od your actual name....leads me to believe its been 10 years since hes been outside. or maybe 10 years since the days of "hangin out" in the back of a comic book shop playing D&D were halfway cool. Okay,...maybe it never was....but the point remains.
Marc Manuele u most likely havent seen the vid where she shames a lady who took an extra hat for her sister from a free merch stance in front of millions of people
tdvc YT She didn’t shame her, she was fooling around , and go look up the cut scenes from that taping and it shows Ellen asking her after wards if she was fine and if she was allowed to sit it and the woman was laughing the whole tine
... This is the first time I've ever seen Ellen legitimately cry... It breaks my heart more than I thought it would... If they didn't give that dog back then humans truly are heartless bastards.
My heart broke when Ellen started sharing her story. She’s really brave to have opened up and admitted her wrongdoing. We all make mistakes Ellen, and whether or not we learn from them is all upon us, and we’re proud of you for being strong and admitting the mistakes made. Much respect always. 🙏
EBH those people who treat others like trash are sad with their lives and are unable to express their hurt assertively since they might’ve been treated badly too when they were younger. But I couldn’t agree more.
Omg, can people please shut the hell up about how they’re recently getting this video in their recommendations. Btw, that’s horrible how they took the dog away. If the dog is fine and is taken care of, then let them have it. Plus, if it’s Ellen’s dog, technically she has a right to give it to someone else if she wants to. Stupid!
God I have the hardest time watching anyone in pain, to see anyone cry, expecailly knowing what a strong person Ellen is. WHy did they have to take the dog away? I... I really just hope they gave the dog back.
Yeah it wasn't the most professional thing to do, but this is why I love Ellen: her heart. She's not crying because of a dog. She's crying because she feels responsible for taking it away from a family to a place that isn't a home. It's not a great feeling when you think you are doing something good and it results badly. Empathy is something a lot of the world is lacking lately.

@@ziggilypiggily The reason that shelters do this is because many people have bought animals as "gifts" and then give them away after a week to someone who could possibly not know anything about caring for that animal, not be financially stable enough to cover vet bills, neglectful or abusive homes, etc. Many people toss their pets out onto the street so a lot of shelters actually get old animals coming back in from the street after being adopted. There are so many things to consider when adopting a pet, these are sentient lives at our mercy. It's the shelter's duty to keep these animals safe.
In my personal opinion, this situation should have been handled differently. The shelter could have come and interviewed the family and see if the situation was appropriate. To rip the family and dog away from eachother after bonding is just cruel.
How tf was this 2007 I do not remember quality of tv shows looking THAT awful.

Jesus you sound like a 🐈. 🤦🏾♂️
Well this is 11 yrs later but I think the family probably just needed to apply & the organization would've approved them. Sounds like the organization was a stickler for policy & the family just needed to follow it's protocol no matter if silly or not, to get the dog back. It seems like more was going on with Ellen. Life can sure be overwhelming at times.
K It I wonder if the dog is with the family?
It's actually very difficult, as someone who worked at a shelter, to have someone who has give you the word, and signed a paper with the agrement to keep and protect and love an animal that you rescued and that took so much of your time to take care, to have that person to tell you so late that they give the dog away when you are trying to get some photos or information about the situation of the animal, It's just really BAD. Even if they have a reason like Ellen, is still irresponsible, and make you feel like you are taken as a joke. Why have people signing papers to have fully responsability to take care of an animal, if they are going to do whatever they feel like after? Like I said, Ellen had a good reason, but she was irresponsible for not talking to the shelter before doing something. I'm not sure about what happened with this case, the dog probably return with it's new family, but normally we wouldn't trust someone like that anymore, unfortunately.
Sofía Vertone With the amount of dogs being put down each day because there is too many to rehome do you really think you have some moral high ground? That kind of ridiculous attitude in the face of good families will literally cost dogs their lives. Ellen signed to take responsibility for that dog which she did, giving it to a good family she trusted. I see no reason she should have to contact the shelter who had yielded responsiblity of the dog. Their behaviour was disgusting and childish, if the welfare of the dog was their priority they would have conducted a house check on the new family and left the poor dog alone. Their behaviour tarnishes the image of shelters in general, should be ashamed of themselves.
@@Hayley-kp6wt I really get what you say. I don't know how shelters work in the USA, and if they are all the same, but in Argentina we don't put down animals, even if they stay their whole life on a shelter. That's why we have strictest rules when it comes to adoption, we take care of abandoned and tortured animals every hour, every minute, we take them in, and without ANY help of the State, only from ordinary people. That's why I repeat, I don't know how shelters work at her country, but I can empathize with the hard work they do, and THAT'S why I said that it must be hard even for them to have to do something like that. Without rules se have nothing. Try to comprehend that too, It sounds horrible when Ellen told the story, but this is reality. I have seen so many people that has done something similar to Ellen, telling us that the families adopting an animal that they promised us to take care, are nice and good when in reality they have nothing to give for those poor animals.
I agree I would hope so.
I just want to give ellen a big hug. I am crying so much right now.

I once had a dog that was hit by a car then runned over by it. It happened so quickly that I couldnt believe what happened in front of me. I cried and cried, the people around me thought it was funny. I was made fun of for crying over an animal (not even anyone in my family cared to comfort me ). But all i knew was, I loved that dog and it hurts when you lose someone or something you love. MAy you always be remembered, RIP My COFE.
That is awful... i'm sorry :(
+Jack Holland thank you for your kindness.

Jay thanks so much for your kind words and positivity. I'm sadden to hear about the cat as well, but Im glad your brother has a loving nature to take cae of those kittens. I hope you have a splendid day and take care.
No of offense but wouldn't have talked to my family for a long time, I would have even tried to utter one word because that is little bit wrong how they didn't try to comfort you if I was your family I would have comforted you until you stopped crying, Heck I would even get you another dog (but probly won't be the same) with all my money!!
She is very good kind lady she love animals and lots of nice healthy animals living with her love to watcher show she is very funny and sweet thank you for sharing your beautiful video. Bless you
Why are people expecting 4K ultra hd quality from a video from 11 years ago
I don't blame Ellen one bit. The rescue organization shouldn't be so concerned with whether or not the person adopting the pet can keep it. As long as it's given a good home, that's all that should matter. So it was wrong for them to come take the puppy away like that. I hope that the girls got their puppy back.
The rescue people are obliged to do this cos they have to trust that the person who signs the form actually keeps the dog. In this case, Ellen was being completely honest, but in other cases, people will adopt these dogs and then sell them to families for money, which is illegal, and that's why they sign the forms and check up on the adopting person/s
God bless you Ellen. You have such a kind heart when it comes to animals. I'm also an animal lover. I feel your pain! You tried to do the right thing!
She tries to do good for everyone and even this that might seem small to others will feel like a big failure for her xx she has such a big beautiful heart x
Oh please. Welfare organizations ask that people return their animals to them in case the home falls through so that they can ensure that the next home is suitable and a good fit. It’s in a contract you signed, Ellen! And in the best interest of the dog. If you just contacted the welfare organization and explained, before YOU decided to do what you wanted, your hairdresser could have applied for the dog, a home check could have been done and things might have worked out differently. Sobbing on international tv is just emotionally manipulative and passive aggressive. The rules are in the animals’ best interest. So many people give their dogs away to people they think will be ok and the dog suffers or is completely unsuitable for the family. Bottom line, follow the rules like everyone else - they are there to protect the animals first.

Shout out to Ellen for keeping it real. Too many celebrities are too concerned with keeping their image that they will never show their feelings around fans.

this comment makes you sound so dumb, either that or you didn't notice this was posted in 2007 and back then, getting footage that was shown on TV was not as easy as it is today
@Makenna Hodges okay :) ty for informing
I'm a little late on this one...but damn. Can they really do that. I mean why as long as the dog has a loving home and not dying on the street. Wtf kinda contract is it to have to be stuck with a pet if you find out later he doesn't work out and he goes to an even better home. Ridiculous. Shame on them for taking the dog back.
Btw did Ellen get her money back?
It’s a policy to protect the pet. I’m sure the adoption counselor went over this and the reasons why it’s in the contract. Ellen was doing the loving act yet there’s reasons for rules. If the family had gone through proper adoption process, they may have gotten the dog back. But I haven’t read or heard anything otherwise.
my parents owned a dog rescue, so i grew up with 12+ at any given time. Unfortunatly, there is a reason for that rule, and its a rule we had also. When a family asks to be given an animal we would go to their home and run down a checklist to make sure that that animal was going to a good home. Because some of those dogs came originally from fighting rings, their genetics were highly prized by people who are into that, and to circumvent our inspection and aquire a favored bloodline, they would have someone else adopt, and then just take the dog elsewhere. often we would go yo visit a year later, and the dog would be gone. Or police would raid a fighting ring, only to rediscover a chipped dog already seized and given to us. We were even threatened with jail time because of such things, when wed onky wanted good things. Its for this reason the rule exists. And every forever family was made sure to understand this before they took a dog home.
HOWEVER, it was ALWAYS on a case by case basis. Had this happened with us, we would have just asked to see the new home to make sure it was okay, had they not called us to begin with. I cry now, and am heartbroken for ellen and those kids. I have to know what happened...
Your not just a “little” late. Ten years late.
@@winnermatt1180 Isnt,it amazing how some people will see the flaw in EVERYTHING. Nothing can just be taken as it is, extract a lesson from it...maybe comment on the theme....and leave. But nooo...
And this guy above is more concerned with the fact that 10 years jas passed the issue in the video. But.....when you ask to be addressed by Disney -somwthing or other instead od your actual name....leads me to believe its been 10 years since hes been outside. or maybe 10 years since the days of "hangin out" in the back of a comic book shop playing D&D were halfway cool. Okay,...maybe it never was....but the point remains.
She is so selfless😭 I love you so much Ellen you are the best human on earth
Marc Manuele u most likely havent seen the vid where she shames a lady who took an extra hat for her sister from a free merch stance in front of millions of people
tdvc YT She didn’t shame her, she was fooling around , and go look up the cut scenes from that taping and it shows Ellen asking her after wards if she was fine and if she was allowed to sit it and the woman was laughing the whole tine
She was not shaming that woman, she was just being funny!
... This is the first time I've ever seen Ellen legitimately cry...
It breaks my heart more than I thought it would...
If they didn't give that dog back then humans truly are heartless bastards.
My heart broke when Ellen started sharing her story. She’s really brave to have opened up and admitted her wrongdoing. We all make mistakes Ellen, and whether or not we learn from them is all upon us, and we’re proud of you for being strong and admitting the mistakes made. Much respect always. 🙏

Ellen honestly doesn't deserve such misery considering what a kind soul she has.
Astonthepunk Punkish immortals it always is the kind ones who get treated like trash.
EBH those people who treat others like trash are sad with their lives and are unable to express their hurt assertively since they might’ve been treated badly too when they were younger. But I couldn’t agree more.
So... does anyone know if they gave the dog back? Why can't they just go to the rescue center and fill out the paperwork to adopt it?
An earlier response says the shelter eventually gave it to a different family.
Anne Korzun that's so messed up

Yeah it wasn't the most professional thing to do, but this is why I love Ellen: her heart. She's not crying because of a dog. She's crying because she feels responsible for taking it away from a family to a place that isn't a home. It's not a great feeling when you think you are doing something good and it results badly. Empathy is something a lot of the world is lacking lately.
When Ellen cries it literally hurts my SOUL
