Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson Heartbroken Over The Death Of His Dog Brutus
One month after Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson saved his dog Brutus from drowning, the unfortunate pooch had to be put to sleep after accidentally eating a poisonous mushroom.
Johnson shared the sad news on Instagram, explaining that Brutus ate the mushroom while playing outside with his brother Hobbs. Even though The Rock was fast to react, there was simply nothing he could have done – the poison destroyed the dog’s liver and immune system and Dwayne had to make the heartbreaking decision to end Brutus’ misery.
Here’s Dwayne’s message for all dog owners out there:
“I encourage all of you out there to be mindful of mushrooms in your yards, parks or anywhere outside your dogs play. What looks innocent, can be deadly to your lil’ family members.”
To make the whole story even more devastating, just a few days after The Rock adopted the two French bulldog brothers, Brutus almost drowned in his pool. Johnson, who saved him then, ended his online tribute to Brutus with the hashtag #WishICouldveSavedYouOneMoreTime.
