Ellen Says "Bow Wow, Woof Woof"

Filed under: Ellen DeGeneres

wenn1640166.jpg

Ellen DeGeneres is a comedian, actress, author, Emmy award-winning talk show host, and now the Oprah-wannabe mogul can add Entrepreneur to the list.

As you probably remember, after that whole Iggy controversy, Ellen decided to help start an organization to rebuild in-the-dumps animal shelters across America.

Now, she's showing her love for animals a bit more by creating her own DOG FOOD!

But, not just any dog food. Really good quality doggy chow that even humans can eat.

That's SO Showgirls!

The dog food is called Halo.

In a recent interview, Ellen spoke about her new venture and partnership with Halo (known for its natural pet foods) to create the food line.

"Ours is all human grade. It's all natural. And yes, you can eat it," says DeGeneres. "People love their animals so much so that they put little clothes on them and necklaces and booties and things like that. And if you love your animal, then you should feed them something that's not dangerous for them. There's a lot of poisonous stuff that they’re putting in a lot of that food, those by-products."

When asked if Ellen were to be a politician, what would be her pet policy, she responded, "My pet policy would be to love them and give them as much respect as you would give any living thing and treat them kindly. They’re innocent little souls that are filled with unconditional love. And we should give them the same."

We love Ellen!!!!!

      She would do anything to improve on her non existant image regarding dog treatment. That's understandable.
      Why did she give away the dog? Didn't it want to …… her …….?
      (fill the dotted line with whatever vile things comes to mind)
      I myself was thinking of … want to SHIT IN her BATHROOM?

      Do an online search on dog food ingredients. Some of what they put in a dog food is whatever garbage is swept off the slaughterhouse floor, such as chicken beaks and chicken shit. Even euthanized shelter cats and dogs have ended up in dog food! They also use grains and other fillers that are labeled as not suitable for human consumption, meaning they are spoiled or rotten.
      Why anyone would look to Ellen as the shining example of an animal's best friend is beyond me. She proved just the opposite with her public behavior and long history of adopting and deserting animals. Lead by example BITCH!

      I love Ellen. She's a very kind and caring person. I am an animal lover, but I am not a vegetarian. You don't have to stop eating meat to love animals. I don't go out and kill the animals, I don't harm animals or anything like that. Eating meat is just natural to us. It's our own choice if we want to eat meat or not, but saying that anyone who eats meat and loves animals is a hypocrite is just dumb. I love animals, even snakes. I also love to eat meat. I don't want to see how the animals are slaughtered, I don't want to hear it, etc. I know that many die inhumanely and it's very sad. Nothing should have to suffer or die terrified and in great pain.

      i think this information may be wrong… im not sure though. cause i watched that show yesterday or the day before, and i think i heard her say she is now part owner, and that the halo brand was already made, but she justs owns part of the company now. i may be wrong, but thats what i think.

      What a disgusting woman, hiding behind a pretense of love for animals. She is the animal and she will burn in Hell!

      Re: Mike Kunthurtz

      YOU ARE SO RIGHT! SHE THREW TANTRUM, DESTROYED A RESCUE ORGANIZATION THAT SAVES THE LIVES OF OVER 200 DOGS A YEAR BECAUSE THEY STARTED GETTING DEATH THREATS FROM ELLEN'S MORONIC FANS. SOUNDS LIKE HER PUBLICITY DEPARTMENT IS TRYING TO DO SOME DAMAGE CONTROL TO FIX UP HER IMAGE.

      Goooo Ellen!!! what a wonderful thing shes doing! if i had the money i would be right there with her helping those poor animals!!

      111

      TEAM BRITNEY and all of you other morons, how is Ellen "helping those poor animals!!" by buying into a dog food company? How is she helping them by making money on a product and pawning it off on her show? Whether or not the food is of quality (which I do not believe it is) doesn't really matter, in the end she is just trying to make $$ and you people are buying into it.

      112

      research your shit perez. she bought part of the company. she isn't making a new line. the line already exists. she is just endorsing it because of the animal lover that she is. she's part owner and just endorsing the line of pet food. and it's not JUST dog food, it's also cat food as well. plus, there are other things other than food, there are herbal supplements as well.

      The woman who says she "developed" this stuff for Halo,stole the recipes and ideas from someone else and never gave him any credit. So her whole song and dance about how her cat was dying and she changed the diet. Yadda, Yadda is just not true.This woman was looking for a way to make money and she sold Ellen a bill of goods. Buyer Beware!
      The whole company is built on a lie and Ellen bought into it and BTW, they do not use human ingredients or anything organic so Ellen should figure it out! This is just a money maker. Ellen wants to do something good for the animals or her pocketbook! Halo is terrible dog food!

      Shut the hell up with your "starving kids" routine. do you even know how many organizations are involved in ending world hunger?
      Okay now do you know how much animals get forgotten? They have been starved and homeless and cold and hurt. It's about damn time that we do something about it!!!!!! props to ellen for taking a step with the shelters and for caring enough to raise an issue and make people aware…
      I LIKE MY DOGS BETTER THAN I LIKE PEOPLE!!!!

      She isin't really creating it…. it's an all natural food line for dogs and cats that has already been created, for a few years now actually …. She is just investing in it, becoming part owner and doing some fantastic advertising for it… YAY ELLEN

      I couldn't agree with Ellen more. So many well-meaning pet owners are buying dog and cat food with by-products in them. By-products which is basically rancid meat along with even scarier stuff thrown in leads to a lot of health problems in pets. Pets who are fed a healthier diet (free of by-products) live longer and suffer a lot less health problems. God bless Ellen for recognizing that for a lot of us, pets are like beloved family members and deserve to be fed only the best!

      All of you who are saying Ellen's a hypocrite… SHUT UP!!!!! She's saying we need to take good care of our pets.. not to stop eating animals or buy animal-made products.

      More people need to care about what they feed their animals. Too bad "natural" means nothing though…any company can use natural as a marketing term, it is totally unregulated. I feed my puppies Paw Naturaw it is USDA cetified organic on top of all human grade ingredients, it is pretty new and more people need to know about it http://pawnaturaw.com

      This is awesome. I'll buy it and let my Christmas try it, but I don't know if he likes it–he's picky. Way to go, Ellen, nice to see someone out there being so kind and putting their money where their mouth is.

      people are soTstupid. firstly she didn't create halo, she is the new co owner, so perez get your facts straight, and secondly why do people always say your a hypocrite if you eat meat… for christ sake who the hell cares… i eat meat and i love every animal… its the food chain… and if we didn't eat meat then there would be huge population crisis on our hands… so get over it you can love animals and EAt meat!! ITS NOT LIKE SHE IS WEARING FUR!

      Of course we should care what we feed our animals and our children. Of course we should all cringe at what is happening to our food supply and the poisoning of our environment. There are people in the world who want to educate all of us about how to feed our animals and ourselves so that we can live healthier disease-free lives. Halo and Ellen are not our teachers-trust me-they are not our teachers. Read Labels and think for yourself and for the animals we love. Unfortunately this company uses inferior ingredients. They are not organic or human grade. Ellen should have figured this out.
