Last week Jen's Corgi-Terrier, Norman, 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.

Then the actress got caught up in her more doggy drama over the weekend.

The famous animal-lover dashed to the rescue of a Los Angeles's resident's pet pooch after it escaped from its home. Jen was driving along Sunset Boulevard in Beverly Hills when she was spotted a Husky running loose along the busy road.

The quick-thinking star quickly pulled over to a side road and jumped out of the car, slowly walking towards the dog. She managed to coax the animal into calming down and standing still, giving her the chance to hold him by the colour. An onlooking paparazzo, who had seen the dog escape, went to the home to alert the owner.
