New Delhi, Oct 12 (ANI): Jennifer Aniston is so fond of her pooch that she “breaks down” whenever the dog is given an injection, it has emerged.

A source told the National Enquirer magazine: “Whenever a vet technician arrives at her home to slip Norman an injection, Jennifer breaks down and flees the room until the deed is done.”

And the 40-year-old beauty rushes back to comfort her beloved Norman as soon as the treatment is over, reports the China Daily.

Norman, a Corgi-Terrier mix, has aged now and has many age-related health complications including arthritis.

But Aniston is doing all she can to reduce his pain - she spends 250 dollars per week on Norman’s massage, Reiki and acupuncture.

An insider said: “Norman has been Jennifer’s constant companion during all her emotional upheavals, but he suffers from aching joints and stiffness. Jennifer doesn’t want to put him on medication just yet, so she has opted for doggy spa treatments from a licensed vet technician.” (ANI)
