The Rock announced on social media that one of his puppies died this week after eating a toxic mushroom on his property. Brutus became Internet famous earlier this month after The Rock saved him from drowning. #RIPBrutus Another reminder we have to live and love as greatly as we can today, because tomorrow is never guaranteed.
