Those throngs of photographers who stake out daily in front of Jennifer Aniston’s home actually did something useful last night. When Aniston’s beloved pooch, Norman, escaped from her property and was nearly hit by a car, paparazzi managed to coax the frightened dog over to them and return him home.
Jennifer Aniston’s pup Norman got loose this weekend in Malibu — but this story has an ending a little happier than “Marley & Me.”
According to paps on the scene, Jen’s Corgi-Terrier escaped from her home and almost got hit by a car. The paparazzi ended up rescuing the dog and taking it back to her house — we’re not sure if Aniston was home when it all went down.
If you recall, Norman the dog was supposedly part of the reason Jennifer broke up with current boyfriend John Mayer, who reportedly doesn’t share her affection for four-legged creatures. There were even reports that John made nice with Norman as a way to win Jen back. As a pet owner, this story is easily one of my worst fears- one of my dogs gets loose and takes off for the street. My younger dog has a healthy fear of cars, but my older dog is under the impression that the street was made just for him- which is why I have to keep a constant eye on him if we’re outside and he’s off leash. One moment, he’s right next to me, and the next, he’s long gone. It was nice that these photogs took a break from harassing celebrities to make sure Norman got home safely, rather than letting an unhappy story unfold.

So paps are good for something OTHER than being speed bumps for your car? Incredible !

Not sure Julia Roberts would agree with the paps being good for anything after her wonderful showdown with them earlier but happy to hear Norman is safe.

Good bit of news! To all my neighbors (who are in their 70′s and 80′s and I’m sure are reading this site), THANK YOU for calling me when my dog has gotten out of the backyard b/c my friend forgot to lock the gate. I would be lost without her and I already cry when I think about having to put her down soon (She’s an 11 yr old lab named Marley and has cancer).

That’s one of my worst fears too. I once saw a dog that got hit by a car on my way to work. It had just happened, the poor thing was still alive, but there was nothing you could do. It was terrible. I’m betting Jennifer Aniston is thanking her lucky stars right about now.

How could they tell the difference between her and the dog???

Glad to know the dog’s OK. I’m not sure if I could ever get with someone who forced me to give up my pet just because of his personal taste, though. I know I wouldn’t myself.
PS- Wow, BigNose, you come up with that one on your own?

morgs: That’s awful. I hope your pup can hang in there for a while longer. I’ve lost many beloved pets in the past and I totally understand what you’re going through.

@Morgs, I am sorry to hear about Marley. Like Codzilla, I know what you’re going through. I wish your pup a peaceful end when her time comes, and strength for you and your family. Hang in there.
This has been helpful to me in the past;
