Hi Ellen,
I don't understand - if you love animals so much why did you agree to be the new face of Covergirl?
Is it because you didn't know they do animal testing?

Hi Ellen,
A friend has sent me this today, which I needed a tissue box for. I hope you read this to your audience or put it up on your website. It's called the Pet's Ten Commandments.
A PET'S TEN COMMANDMENTS.........

1. My life is likely to last 10-15 years. Any separation from you is likely to be painful.
2. Give me time to understand what you want of me.
3. Place your trust in me. It is crucial for my well-being.
4. Don't be angry with me for long and don't lock me up as punishment. You have your work, your friends, your entertainments, but I have only you.
5. Talk to me. Even if I don't understand your words, I do understand your voice when speaking to me.
6. Be aware that however you treat me, I will never forget it.
7. Before you hit me, before you strike me, remember that I could hurt you, and yet, I choose not to bite you.
8. Before you scold me for being lazy or uncooperative, ask yourself if something might be bothering me. Perhaps I'm not getting the right food, I have been in the sun too long, or my heart might be getting old or weak.
9. Please take care of me when I grow old. You too, will grow old.
10. On the ultimate difficult journey, go with me please. Never say you can't bear to watch. Don't make me face this alone. Everything is easier for me if you are there, because I love you so.

I hope you liked it, as I hope everyone that has a pet could read this..

Sincerly,
Sandra Hrisko/Sawyer

Hi Ellen!!!!! My name is Jessica and im from Ohio. I have a problem dog on my hands!!!!! Iam the proud owner of 3 dogs. My first is Nakita shes a mix breed of many.then my american staffordshire terrior. Then last but not least my lil man a toyfox terrior. My pitt bull is very aggressive towards my oldest female nakita. They got into a real bad fight and it just seems to get worse. Iam desperate. I love my pitt bull so much. I have a 7 year old son that she is wonderful to and people in general. I dont know what to do. Everywhere i call says that they dont take vicious dogs or they wont adopt them out. Which only means one thing. I cant take my year and a half dog to a place and have her put down!!!!!!! I love her very very much she is the best dog that i have ever owned by far. But no matter what i do she does not like my other dog just the female. I have watched dogtown for some time now, and iam a huge fan of their work. I think what they did with the Micheal vick dogs was amazing!!!!! But each time i watch the show i can never see a place to write them or contact them!!! Ellen iam in desperate need of help badly!!! I fear that if i can even find a place to take my pitt they will kill her and thats the last thing i want to happen. But i also fear that if she stays here theres a huge possibility that she will kill my other female dog. i have raised this dog all my dogs with love and respect i dont know what iam doing wrong. Please help me Ellen!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you for taking the time to read my letter!!!! sincerely
Jessica

I would like to get in touch with John Gracia. Do you have a website for this organization or TV show?

I am writing from Santiago CHILE, and the conditions down here are shameful, horrible for dogs. While people enjoy their luxury living (only a part of the country), dogs and cats are being abused, neglected and abandoned every day on the streets

PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

thank you
Gisel

Ellen,
Many thanks to you for featuring John Garcia and Georgia and the amazing work of Best Friends Animal Society on your show. It's fantastic that you've made your thousands and thousands of fans aware of Best Friends and all they do for animals. They are an incredible organization that I am proud to support--and I have two Best Friends' dogs!
Thanks to you and Portia for your holiday contribution to Best Friends and for encouraging others to do the same. Next, you need to plan a visit to Angel Canyon. You will never want to leave!
Warm regards--

Hi Ellen,

I am not familiar with your show, but I came to your website specifically to see the piece about Best Friends. I am a long time supporter of Best Friends and visited there a few years ago. They do wonderful work there and are a model for the smaller rescue groups all over the country.

Thank you for highlighting Best Friends on your show.

Ellen
It was so wonderful to see some positive that has happened to the Micheal Viks dogs. I was always so fearful for their fate. We have alway helped strays and this has probably been a finacially minus for my husband and I as most people see it, but to us, we have always spoken on how this is what we are meant to do. We together have no children and the dogs, cats, rabbit and the ferret that just happen to show up in the field behind our house ( in the country setting) is our family. We have not and cannot turn anyone ( four legged ) away. We can barely afford the loved ones we care for, but we are definitely sending a donation to Dogtown, it may not be alot, but we will send a small check. We wished we live closer to help out their cause.
Keep up the good work for the lonely, lost, left behind animals. God Bless the Creatures Great and Small.
Linda

THANK YOU ELLEN AND BEST FRIENDS ! ! ! !

After i saw the Ellen show with Georgia and John, i immedietly went to the best friends web site to donate...I have a great love for all animals, but especially for the dogs that were rescued from that piece of sh*t Micheal Vick...like he doesn't have enough money. I must say I'm happy that he's rotting in jail for now. I have such a soft spot in my heart for animals because they have no voice, and no choice in how they live their lives. I have been blessed to have a loving boxer named Charlie, he's the bestest friend i could ever have. He loves me unconditionally, and has a heart of gold. I wish the same for every animal.
I'm going to end by saying "thanks ellen" and please keep bringing attention to this cause !

Thank you Ellen for having Georgia and John on your show today. Dogtown is a great show and Best Friends is a great place. I even had to have my brother tape Dogtown for me as I do not have cable at my house. If your viewers haven't seen it yet I highly recommend it to all animal lovers. BF is a great place to visit too and if you haven't been there you must make time to see it. My goal when I get my place sold here in Michigan, (which looks like it will be awhile in this market), is to move to UT and work for Best Friends. How could I pass up the job of a lifetime, working with all the wonderful animals
and getting paid!!

Thank you again Ellen for taking your time and showing how Best Friends is helping animals in need.

Janet

Thank You Ellen!
We just adopted a 12 year old girl from Best Friends over Thanksgiving!! Its truly a magical, beautiful place. I plan on returning again, and volunteering. Our girl was there for 10 years, and they took such wonderful care of her. She was unadoptable due to aggression issues, but has totally mellowed in her golden years. We are blessed to have her. We had the wonderful opportunity to meet John Garcia while there, and he is such an engaging, happy person! Best Friends is lucky to have him, and everyone else we met for that matter!
