Dwayne Johnson to the rescue - of his pet

Sep 09, 2015 06:00 am

Dwayne Johnson continues to play the hero - even at home.

The US actor posted an Instagram photo on Monday of him holding his two newly-adopted French bulldog puppies, Hobbs (far right) and Brutus (right), in the pool.

In the caption, the 43-year-old explained how he saved one of them from drowning within hours of bringing them home.

"I set them both down and they take off in a full sprint and fall right into the deep end of our pool. Hobbs immediately starts doggy paddling while Brutus sinks heads first to the bottom of the pool."

So Johnson did what anyone would - dive fully-clothed into the pool to rescue his pet.

One Big Happy Family Again?

Aug 17, 2016

Here's a fun Labor Day weekend story... We just decided to add two new members to our Johnson family. Baby French Bulldogs. In my right hand is BRUTUS and in my left hand is HOBBS. Bring them home and immediately take them outside so they can start learning how to "handle their business and potty like big boys". I set them both down and they both take off in a full sprint and fall right into the deep end of our pool. HOBBS immediately starts doggy paddling while BRUTUS (like a brick) sink heads first to the bottom of the pool. I take off into a full sprint, fully clothed, dive in the pool, swim to the bottom, rescue my brick, I mean BRUTUS and bring him back to the edge of the pool. He was a little delirious.. took a moment, threw up all the water he swallowed and looked up at me as if to say, "Thank God you didn't have to give me mouth to mouth!" and then ran off to play with his brother. A few lessons I've learned today.. A) Not all puppies have the instinct to doggie paddle. B) Some puppies (like BRUTUS) will be so in shock by experiencing water they will sink extremely fast so react quick. C) While spiriting to save your puppies life, before you dive in, try and throw your cel phone to safety. Don't keep it in your pocket... like I did. #BRUTUSLives #HOBBSCanSwim #MyCelPhonesDead #AndNoMouthToMouthNeeded #HappyLaborDay
