Wilmac and Bluesky are correct regarding this issue.
The rules are in place to protect the animals. The people who take the animals sign a contract agreeing to the rules.
Just because Ellen is a celebrity doesn't absolve her from any rules or anything she or her partner had signed.
If Ellen really wanted that dog for a friend or employee, she could have put a hold on the dog at the shelter. Then brought her friends to the shelter to complete whatever proper rules and paperwork that were in place.
Ellen didn't do that. What makes it worse, she took the issue to her show and unfairly portrayed the situation.
Shame on Ellen.
Well thats why I will never adopt from a rescue group. I'd like to know what makes them experts in human/dog realtions. The humane society is much easier to get a dog through and those dogs are in more need of getting out of jail then rescue dogs who live in foster homes.
