Norman the 10-month-old Rottweiler, was going into surgery for a double elbow arthroscopy because he was diagnosed with elbow dysplasia. His owner was nervous about the surgery and leaving Norman overnight at the vet so she explained to him what was happening, hoping he would understand. Luckily, the surgery went well and Norman returned home to recover like a champ.
