Johnson went on to share a personal reflection, hinting at a deeper emotional struggle. “Lately, there’s been a lot that’s too big to talk about. Lonesome, lonely, heard it’s all the same,” he shared the sentiment many can relate to, especially when navigating a loss.
Adding a poignant touch to his post he also referenced one of his favorite songs, George Strait’s What’s Going on in Your World. The actor wondered what about the new world Hobbs has entered, “One of my favorite songs felt appropriate here, as I wonder what’s going on in his new world because I know what it’s like in mine.” He ended it with a sad note, writing,

Dwayne Johnson’s French Bulldog Hobbs also had a cameo appearance in Johnson’s movie
Moana voice actor, Johnson rescued two French bulldog puppies– Brutus and Hobbs in 2015. Unfortunately, Brutus passed away within just 3 months after consuming a toxic mushroom while playing in the backyard. However, Hobbs stayed with Johnson and his family for many years, but the loss follows a similar emotion.
Johnson often shares his personal moments with his fans, including his deep affection for his dog, Hobbs. He was often spotted in the actor’s personal gym, “The Iron Paradise,” where he’s seen working out alongside Johnson. On another note, it is no coincidence that Johnson named the Frenchie Hobbs.
The name was similar to the actor’s character, John Hobbs, in the Fast and Furious spinoff Hobbs and Shaw. In connection to his pet, the black and white Frenchie even made a cameo appearance in the movie.
Not only a cameo appearance, Hobbs also appeared on the cover of GQ Magazine alongside Johnson for his Men of the Year cover shoot in 2024. The duo posed together, with Hobbs stealing the spotlight. In addition to Hobbs, Johnson also adopted another rescue dog, Turbo in 2022. In 2023, he introduced a 1500lb Brahma bull, whom he calls his “son.”
While fans are sending their love to Johnson during this sad time, Johnson will hold on to the memories of the pure love and joy Hobbs brought to his life.
