Under all that tough looks and muscle, The Rock has a heart of gold and one that cares for anyone, and anything. Including puppies. Because he just rescued a puppy by jumping into a pool to save it. Check out the Instagram below and his story behind it:


He said:

"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 sat 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 padding while BRUTUS sink heads first to the bottom of the pool. I take off into a full sprint, fully clothed, dived 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 dellirious, took a moment, threw up all the water he swallowed and looked 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 instict 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 cell phone to safety. Don't keep it in your pocket..like I did.
