While you were enjoying your Labor Day weekend with friends and family, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson has a crazy story to share after rescuing two baby French Bulldogs from his swimming pool.

After bringing home two baby French Bulldogs, he wanted to bring them outside so they could “handle their business,” but as soon as put them down they both ran off and fell into the pool.

We’ll let The Rock explain.

“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. “

On Monday, he posted a picture to Instagram of him holding the two puppies with a big smile on his face.

He also shared a few lessons he learned from this experience.

“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.”
