Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson may seem like a tough guy on the outside, but deep down he’s just a big, animal-loving softy.

The wrestler-turned-actor shared an adorable #throwbackthursday photo on Instagram this week showing him with a huge smile on his face while petting a dog. And can we just take a moment to look at how much that dog is loving it? Priceless.

Johnson captioned the sweet pic, “My animal magnetism. Or he just smells the bomb tacos I just ate. #tbt.”

Cute! But nothing will ever beat The Rock’s high school throwback:

You’re welcome.
