Muscle man's best friend! Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson enjoys beach stroll with his beloved dog... and girlfriend tags along too
He may 6 ft 5 in and packed with muscle but when it comes to his dogs he's just a big softie.
Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson was virtually putty in his pooch's paws as he frolicked on the beach in Miami, Florida with his French bulldog Hobbs and his girlfriend Lauren Hashian on Thursday.
The 43-year-old muscly star of Baywatch was on a break from shooting that movie and in his stride while strolling on shore in black swim trunks.

Relaxed mode: Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson enjoyed a break from filming Baywatch on the beach in Miami, Florida alongside his girlfriend Lauren Hashian and their adorable French bulldog Hobbs
The former pro-wrestler flexed his mighty brawn by going shirtless, and showed off his vast assortment of tattoos too.
The Rock was just taking it easy, enjoying the down time and so was Hobbs, one of the cute pooches he adopted last September.
The black-and-white dog - who preferred sitting to running when The Rock first got him - has learned a thing or two.

On the alert: The Rock's dog - named Hobbs - pricked up his ears when he spied something afar
Hobbs had a blast running alongside Lauren as she jogged along the shore.
The Rock had his turn and stood proudly by while Hobbs spied something afar and leaned forward with ears pricked up.
The actor's girlfriend took many pictures of the brawny star with his four-legged friend.

That's all you get: The star would have to be satisfied with the snaps that they had because Hobbs had things to do
The Rock then stepped forward to check out the snaps for himself on Lauren's handy iPhone.
Hobbs took to the water well, which can't be said for his canine pal Brutus.
Just hours after bringing the newly adopted pups home, The Rock became a real-life superhero when he saved Brutus from drowning in the swimming pool.

Both dogs had run straight into the pool and while Hobbs knew instinctively to dog paddle, the other pup started sinking fast.
Luckily The Rock acted quickly, dived into the water and rescued both dogs, and no harm came to either one of them.
In an Instagram video posted five months ago, Hobbs was the one giving his big daddy a tough time.

Doting: Hobbs was clearly enjoying the beach stroll as much as The Rock and Lauren
'It's morning and I've got a lot to do, plus you are named after one of the greatest movie characters of all time - Hobbs, let's go,' the actor was seen telling the dog.
Hobbs had a different idea and soon settled upon the plush green grass for an apparent snooze.
The muscular actor has been seen hard at work on the set of the big-screen Baywatch reboot co-starring Zac Efron, Kelly Rohrbach, Alexandra Daddario and Priyanka Chopra.
