"It's pretty crazy," Majewski said. "If you ask anyone around the office, I'm the quiet one. I mostly keep to myself. My sister and my mom were keeping me up with it throughout the day and it's good. Got the shelter a lot of attention and we're getting a lot more calls and dogs adopted out."
"The Ellen Show" also surprised Majewski and his team with toys and treats for all of the animals at the shelter who are still waiting to find their forever homes.
