A decade ago if we were to run a story about a wrestler and puppies, it’d more than likely be because the viewing public finally got jack of leering old heel commentators making canine epithets about the chests of much younger female performers.
But we’re doing it in 2015 and it’s because the greatest person in the world somehow refuses to cease getting better.
The Rock is celebrating the US Labor Day long weekend by playing around with and potty training the two littlest, furriest, most holy shit so adorable additions to the Johnson family in the form of Brutus and Hobbs – a pair of French Bulldog puppies.
The Rock’s long been a dog owner. Potty training? Piece of cake, right?
Only problem there is that apparently as soon as feet hit ground, the little scamps made a beeline for the pool (unfenced, because America didn’t have Laurie Lawrence telling them to supervise/watch yr m8/learn how to resuscitate).
Hobbs managed to navigate it fine, but poor Brutus didn’t quite have the concept of buoyancy locked down and sank like a brick almost instantly.
Enter: Your mate Dwayne Johnson. Who pulled some straight-up boss-level Baywatch character acting and dove in – fully clothed, phone still in pocket – to rescue the little guy.
We know the saying goes “Everyone has the same 24 hours in each day,” but that’s gotta be utter BS because there is no way – and PEDESTRIAN.TV means “No. Way.” – that my man is operating on anything less than 31.
