He goes on to explain, "And I said, ‘I’m sorry man, you know I’ve already got three,' ” he said, adding, "I just kept looking at her picture, and I was just… I just fell in love with her.”

In this sweet video he says, "My home is where my dogs are because there is just such a sense of love with them and so I feel like wherever they are there's a sense of normalcy which is hard for me to attain these days because I'm so busy and constantly on the go. So my dogs are my happy place and I don't say that lightly."

He then goes on to talk about his rescue pack including Ollie and Maggie and how his connection to them led him to learn how many dogs in shelters are in need of loving forever homes.

What an absolutely awesome human Dave Bautista is!
