This is really sad. Ellen DeGeneres and her GF Portia de Rossi adopted a mixed-breed puppy a few weeks ago, but when the dog could not become acclimated to their cats, so Ellen sought out a better home for it. She ended up giving the puppy to her hairdresser, who has two little girls, and the dog lived happily with them for like two weeks. But when the adoption agency found out about it, they insisted that Ellen was in breach of her contract, so they showed up at the hairdresser's house with cops and took the puppy back, leaving the little girls in tears. The whole thing must've been so traumatic, as it seems everyone involved was totally attached to that puppy. In the clip above, Ellen loses it on her show, and pleads with the agency to give the dog back to the family. WTF is the deal with this Cruella DeVille adoption agency? When I adopted my dog, the employees at the pound were like, "Peace. And if you try and give her back, we'll charge you $70."
