The Lothario told the chat show host: ‘You always say you’ve got to take a step in life, you’re turning 40 soon, you gotta commit to something.’
And when Ellen protested, saying she meant he should be in a relationship, he riposted: ‘This is a relationship.’
Ryan unveiled the mutt after being ribbed over a promising for a decade to get his own, saying: ‘I made a deadline with my other Ellen, Ellen K who is on the radio with me because she didn’t believe that I would do it. I had dogs in relationships and then they end and the dogs would go.’
‘So I decide alright, I’m going to make this deadline with Ellen “on the air” and I’m gonna meet the deadline. This is my first dog. My very own dog.’

When the image of of the impossibly cute puppy was finally shown it made the crowd gasp.
Ryan said: ‘She’s a black lab. That’s about all I know about dogs. That she’s a black lab.
He also explained he was extremely pleased with her moniker, saying, ‘I’m from the state of Georgia, so I named her Georgia’

The disc jockey said: ‘Well here I came here excited about my big reveal and now I don’t know what to do. Now see this is why I worry about commitment. Now you know why I fear it.’
And Ryan, who has dated the likes of Julanne Hough and Sophie Monk, said he thinks he will use the same approach for finding a partner as he did for getting a dog.
He said: ‘I’m turning 40 in a few months, I’ve got the dog, I think my mother’s expecting grandkids soon and so I’ll name the grandkids then find the wife.’
