iggy02.jpgTrying to do the right thing, comedian and talk show host Ellen DeGeneres now finds herself in deep doo doo with Mutts and Moms.  Ellen adopted Iggy, a cute little dog.  She cared for Iggy to the best of her ability, and when it was clear the adoption was not going to work out she gave the dog to a loving family.  The dog lived there for two weeks — bonding with the two girls in the home, and they bonded with Iggy.

Ellen shares the story on her web site.

When Mutts and Moms called to check up on Iggy, Ellen didn’t lie — she told them the truth.  And that’s when the trouble started.  It seems Ellen had signed an agreement saying that she would not give the dog away.  Mutts and Moms, claiming Ellen violated the contract, demanded the dog be returned. 

They physically went over to Iggy’s new home and carted Iggy back to the shelter.
