Dave Bautista radiates pitbull energy in the best way
yes!!! ❤
💯💯💯💯 looks tough, best on the couch snuggling
he has a big heart and one of my role models
Hes never murdered and children
@@apbtthebest4049wrong
I got to work with Dave Bautista as his handler over a two day period. The way you see him here is exactly how he is in person; incredibly kind, quiet, genuine, humble and considerate of everyone. He is legitimately a good human being.
I agree. He was one of my clients just as he was debuting in the WWE. I met him before I saw him in the ring and it was like night and day his character vs his gentle and kind personality. I’ve been rooting for his success since then. The fact that he is rescuing and adopting dogs, especially pit bulls, makes me love him even more.
@@StephieFaithIt takes a good actor to "turn it on", so to speak.
@@decepticonmecha this was long before he was an actor, and before he was even a big WWE star. I worked with sever of the WWE wrestlers, both well known and unknown, and he was by far the nicest and most generous. He had absolutely no reason to be kind to me or anyone else in our office.
@@StephieFaith I'm just saying. He's a natural.
@@StephieFaithI'm delighted to hear that the big guys are often teddy bears in public away from their personas in the ring. Even more so if they're passionate animal lovers. Thank you for sharing your experiences! ☺️
People love to say we don't deserve dogs. This man deserves dogs.
Lies again? Learn To Walk Golden Boot
@@NazriBwhat are you even talking about?
Yes!
Přesně tak👍
@@NazriBshut up
I love that he’s trained them to hide instead of using them as weapons. We need to stop using dogs as weapons.
That part nearly made me cry! But also that's so freaking smart
I’ve never even heard of training a dog to hide… it’s so sweet and smart, he really sees them like his children.
You're right.. dogs shouldn't be "weapons" however, there's absolutely NOTHING wrong with having a dog trained for protection.. Of course, that includes REAL training. If a dog's just aggressive and wants to attack everyone, that's NOT a protection dog.. that's a liability !
@@mikefrost1312 nope, sorry. To me, that’s unethical. Dogs have the emotional intelligence of a child. I don’t support the use of child soldiers.
@@deadpanturtle Dog intelligence can't be compared to human intelligence/emotion.. For one, dogs are FAR smarter & second, they aren't people.. I don't think ANYONE would support sending a child to war lol. But , a dog trained to protect, is FAR from a "child at war" and it isn't really even a logical comparison... I'm fully capable of protecting myself & my family.. but I also work ! If I'm not home, I at least know my dogs are going to do whatever they need in order to keep my family safe!! If course, NOBODY wants their dog to get hurt or killed by some crazy person breaking in.. But, would you rather it be a child ? Or a dog ? I'm picking the dog everytime !! The 70 something year old lady down the road could have been brutally assaulted/robbed and even killed if her dog wasn't trained to "protect" her.. She doesn't own guns & couldn't handle one if she did & OBVIOUSLY can't fight off 2 adult/younger drug addicts in her own.. should she just give up life & check into a nursing/old folks home instead? I understand YOU don't have the need for a protection dog & don't agree with it . But, they do have their place and AREN'T just "disposable tools" they're still family members !
No docked tails, no cropped ears! That’s how Pitbulls are supposed to look like.
The nature makes them,like they are, and this is the best.
@@apbtthebest4049 Pit Bulls run the gamut of sizes and shapes. Read the UKC standards. Short and stocky to tall and lanky. My family bred Pits going back to over 100 years ago. We bred Colby lines. I've seen you copy/paste the same comment on other videos with Pit Bulls, you're just an idiot.
@@apbtthebest4049yes, they are.
You do realise 'pitbull' isn't a breed but an umbrella term that covers a variety of breeds, right?
Staffy, American PB terrier, etc, all are pit bulls.
@@chadmyron2552 the only and real pit bull is the American Pit Bull Terrier. The English Staff ( England ) and the Irish Dog known as the Old Family ( Ireland) created the Pit Bull . Once those dogs were imported to America. The Dogs were bred together to create the Pit Bull and Chauncey Bennet ( United Kennel Club) register them as the American Pit Bull Terrier in 1898 .
This massive, trained-to-fight human has 4 pitbulls and he trained them to run and stay safe. That's love right there.
Dave Bautista is the perfect example of what masculinity should be, protective, warm, empathetic, kind, strong, loving, humble and secure in oneself and those qualities. Truly an inspiration, and should be an inspiration to all men. Also pitties are fantastic dogs and I'm so glad he's picked this breed to rescue, they get so much undeserved hatred.
Yeah, I live by a saying when it comes to dogs. "Dogs are like kids, they do what you teach and allow. It's not the dog, it's the owner."
Once the strike is over, I hope someone writes a movie for Dave of a vampire hunting cowboy accompanied by 4x sweet doggos who give emotional support to the hero, and snuggle & hide with the people the hunter protects.
that's a movie I want to see!
@@thebiglimeyMe too!
AND is a rom com. Western Vampire Rom-com with Dave Bautista as the protagonist/love interest, I would love to see that as well!
I'd watch that so much.
Please write this Citizen JTeh. Loving the idea
He has four rescue pitties, bought his place specifically so they would have room to run and not be able to tear stuff up, has dinosaur statues on his yard, and wrote into his latest acting contract that he has to be able to bring his dogs. I knew there was a reason I loved him.
to think hes a 6ft6 200+ pound giant with tattoos lol
"She came with a chain embedded in her neck and she left in a Rolls Royce"
Her life is a movie! This is so wholesome❤
That Dave loves his dogs so much he thought to have them trained to hide in case of an intruder or something is just so heart warming. We hear all these stories about dogs protecting their humans from all sorts of things, sometimes to the dog's detriment, so having a human think of protecting the dogs first just makes my heart so full.
Especially with the horror stories of cops walking into someone’s property & shooting dogs on sight regardless if the dog is doing nothing. It just makes sense in today’s society, sadly.
I love that Dave's property is full of dinosaurs 🦕
Right? I was like, is nobody going to mention the DINOS?
YES! I had to back track a second at the tryk because I thought I was seeing things
Why does he have dinosaurs? Asking for a friend...
@@ignatzcmwthey're Pratt'a bur he didn't have enough space
My running route with my 2 pitties takes me by his house and I have been trying to figure out the dinos for years lol
I feel Batista's "pain" over his pup getting concerned when he gets upset. I can't even play video games around my pittie anymore. If I yell at the TV she runs over to make sure I'm ok 😂😂
Met Dave in 2005 when I was ten, outside a pizza shop in Boston before a wrestling show. Saw him across the street and asked my old man if we could go ask him for an autograph and my dad was totally not into crossing the street to go bother this behemoth of a man, but he swallowed his pride and brought me over there and asked him for me. Dave was very quiet and not particularly warm in an outward way, (probably got hounded constantly and was traveling non stop, so not making a judgement, actually seemed kinda shy about the whole thing ) but he wasn't too big of a star to sign an autograph outside a pizza shop before for a ten year old fan and his dad. Told him good luck against Triple H and gave me a smirk and a pat on the back and thanked me. Solid ass dude that gave me a a cool memory for life. +rep for being a pit bull dad. Love this guy forever.
The fact that he trained his dogs to hide just shows an unsurmountable love for them. Especially with the way pitties are often framed as being aggressive.
He loves them so much, you hear him getting choked up a little about Penny in the end ❤😢
I noticed that too
Sobbing 😭 I am so glad she is living a good life now ❤
I got choked up listening to him! I have a rescue and it's tough to think of anyone abusing them
I was sniffling listening to that story
Dave is literally a Pit Bull in human form.
Except he doesn’t kill children and other pets and was not bred to attack unprovoked anything from a rat to a two thousand pound bull
@@marka8537brador's attack slightly less often.
Funny thing nobody ever mentions that.
Funnily enough, in 2016 Liverpool UK recorded jack russell's as the highest reported breed for dog bites.
It's the owner not the breed that determines the type of dog you end up with.
@@marka8537 Dumb comment
@@marka8537 These dogs are not Pit bulls nor 99% of the mutts that are mislabeled as Pit bulls in the pound
@@akacocox6114I disagree with your assessment of this breed, because all dogs are reckless, not just shitbulls. I don't like this animal
I need a cute romcom with Dave and his dogs in it once the writers strike is over
"Must love dogs 2025"?
he wants to do a romcom so bad and honestly yes I want him to play a veterinarian
I would totally see that
For years I have only know Dave Batista to be the biggest guy with a heart just as big. His love for dogs, his desire to be in a RomCom (Would pay all the money to see that movie) and his amazing career out of wrestling and movie making. This was just that good food for my brain. 12/10.
I would watch the hell out of a romcom starring Batista ❤
I thought I couldn’t appreciate Dave more, but seeing him with his dogs with their big happy tongues & his awesome lawn sculptures has made him even more admirable ❤
His thigh tattoo is the most awesome, too.
Damn it! Here comes the tears 😢
My first Pitty was only 4 weeks when we got him. He had been tossed out a sunroof of a car going about 60 miles an hour. Beanie was our life. My twins and just started kindergarten and he never left their side from that day until the day he passed over the rainbow bridge from kidney disease 😔
He was a true ambassador for the breed.
Sounds like you were mutually fortunate. Thank you for sharing!
Bautista got that dog in him 💙🐾Happy Fathers Day!
Dog rescuer, LGBT+ ally, gentle soul, kind person, smart, great actor. Dave Bautista is a good human.
Amen to that!
Nothing but love and respect for Dave
Don't forget childhood icon
Sin shortens life, because of our sins we are separated from God.There is nothing in this world worth going to hellfire for. Repent of your sins and be born again, Jesus Christ is coming back everyone. It's about a relationship with Jesus Christ NOT religion/denomination. We have a relationship with Jesus Christ by repenting of all of our sins, praying and reading the Bible everyday, believe the gospel of Jesus Christ and be born again.
@@MaryLovesJesus You do you, boo, but not everyone believes in the same gods as you do - some none at all - so you can’t be so presumptuous as to speak for all of us. Have a good day.
Having them trained to hide is the best part! 🥰
Sobbing because he taught his dogs to run and hide… immediately coming up with a hiding spot/training plan for mine
This man deserves the world, and you know he wouldn’t take it all for himself.😭
Dave is such a gentle giant ❤.. I am a 64 year old, husband, father and grandpa. I have been rescuing dogs since I was 7 years old. My kind of rescue is different. When I see a dog loose, I have to stop what I’m doing, and get a leash around it and get it back home. Because dogs are not meant to be loose in traffic.
I carry dog treats and a couple rope leashes. I stopped counting at 100 dogs back home 20 years ago.
You throw the treats to them and be patient and try to get them to come to you.
I have had a dog or 2 since I was born. I have never bought a dog.
Bless you big dave and this channel!
I love the fact that Dave's very soft spoken and his Pitties match the energy. awesome video
This man deserves to be cast in all the cute romcoms 😭❤️
I think he’d be great in a serious romance movie. Something like The Notebook. I think he could pull it off.
Bruh I just watched vengeance 05
How can you not like Dave?
Yeah he's such a good guy
The way he almost shed tears when he told pennys story. That’s deep.
I love how he just watches them all when they’re walking to stay on top of their interests and needs 💜
And the interviewer does as well. He noticed when the puppy was going to get tangled in the leash and fixed it before it became an issue. Attentive dog people, both of them.
He's the walking definition of "never judge a book by its cover"
Huge respect to Dave. I don't care if he's popular or not. He's a dog lover and that's above it all.
Pit bulls are such beautiful dogs and they suit Dave Batista completely because he is just like a giant pit bull, looks scary but is just so sweet and loving and smart just like they are
No such thing as a Giant pit bull and the dogs in this video are not pit bulls either
I am a dog walker and love to see a big celebrity talking about adopting dogs and specially pitbull. I constantly see how people react negatively when I am walking them but in reality they are the sweetest dogs.
It’s from the stigma that them and rotts are the dogs used most in dogfighting also because a pit bull jaw is like tiger sharks once it gets a hold something they are hard to pry off but in reality people forget dogs are animals any dog breed can be dangerous under certain circumstances
@@apbtthebest4049 you have the mind of a 2 yr old 😂😂
@@apbtthebest4049 - being picky about breed determination is kinda beside the point, here.
They're ALL SMOOOOOOOOCHABLE goober babies! 🥰
I worked with Dave Bautista's mom Donna years ago. He was nice enough to personally sign a WWE poster of himself for me. His love of dogs makes me an even bigger fan of his.
Dude the way he instantly turns into Bautista the wrestler for 5 seconds is incredible. That’s is truly having “it”. Plus everything else in this vid. What a guy!
It’s refreshing to see such a famous man NOT full of himself! His dogs are unashamedly paramount in his life as he continually strives to improve professionally. What a wonderful wholesome chat between dog lovers! Incidentally, I suggest Dwayne Johnson and Henry Cavil, possibly POTUS!
Dave Bautista is such a class act. What a great guy
For someone who plays a incredible heel in WWE is such a soft and gentle man. Love you Batista ❤️
Dave is one of those guys that started in wrestling, and now has broken out of that and is becoming or is an amazing actor with a lot of depth to the characters he plays.
Every interview I see with Dave just makes me like and respect him even more. A mountain of a man who's spent his life playing "big scary dude who could snap in you in half" when he's actually a gentle giant. Completely agree with his "adopt don't shop" philosophy. I've had dogs all my life and they've all been rescue's.
Matt, this is my favorite walk video so far. Dave Bautista is a gentle soul, and his dogs are absolutely loveable. Pitties are WONDERFUL. ❤
He's got such a huge, kind heart. Lovely dogs. They got a great forever home.
This is easily the most heartwarming video I've seen all year! WELL DONE! I'm such a fan of Dave Bautista's work but especially after learning of all he does to rescue dogs and advocate rescue. I still remember what he did a few years ago for the dog found with the chain embedded and it was just so wonderful to see her thriving and featured here.
He's truly amazing. My new celebrity crush! God bless you, Dave! And yes, please we need a rom-com with Dave and a vampire movie! He'd crush both!
He talks so quietly and calmly, didn't expect that at all. Fantastic interview.
dave is such a good dude, with a heart of gold
take in rescues, not pedigree bred dogs
I love how Dave Bautista loves his dogs. It speaks volumes about what kind of human he is. The best.
I didn't think I could love Dave anymore. And yet here we are. More love ❤️ with those furry babies
My rescue dog Penny also had an embedded chain in her neck. Like Bautista's Penny, ours is the sweetest, most loving and amazing dog baby ever. ♡
It's refreshing seeing a strong human being so compassionate and loving towards his rescue babies like this. ♡♡♡
A safe word and a hiding spot for the dogs to go run and hide…. I’m weeping 🥹
Everytime I listen to Dave in an interview, I am amazed by how softspoken, shy and sweet this huge guy comes across. Really cool dude.
I love this movie! 🍿
Dave x Matt + adopted pit bulls = Best Crew Ever 🥹
Not pitbulls
I love Dave Bautista. Very good actor but more importantly a kind man.
I was in Tampa on vacation when Pennys story hit the news down there and I followed the story even after I returned home and it made my heart so happy that after such a crap experience she was going to have a chance at an amazing life with Dave
If I didn’t love Dave Bautista before I definitely do now. Pitties are the best, sweetest and most beautiful dogs in the world. I love my pitbulls 🥰
thank you matt and thank you dave for this interview, i didn’t realize this is what i needed today, but i did 💛
Dave is such a gentle giant ❤
Amazing, the video ID even has Aww in it 😊
I give Dave and his doggos 12/10. Very good.
When he mentioned wanting to do a western, I immediately thought, "If they ever finally make Blood Meridian, I would LOVE to see him in that film."
Brutal story dont know if i would like him to play judge 😂
He could play The Judge!
He’s such a lovely, gentle guy - and these are the perfect dogs for him! ❤
I completely agree with Batista I'm a huge animal lover and I'm a big weightlifting guy myself and people are always judging you on your appearance always without getting to know who you are
Every single day of my life for the last 4 decades I've had pitbulls. And along with them kittens by the dozens that I saved and my pitbulls love them so much. And the cats are the boss make no mistake
Nothing but respect for Dave. He truly deserves all the success he's had, and the dogs deserve all the love too
The world needs more people like Dave Bautista
❤ Pitbull love is unlike any other. Dave gets it. Much love and blessings to you, Dave.
Always liked Mr. Bautista as an actor, but watching him with his dogs made my heart go splat. What a lovely, lovely man!!
Dave Batista is easily the best actor of any wrestler ever. And I mean purely in performance, his range and emotion is near Oscar territory, you can see him getting there some day.
One of the most wholesome video in a long time…
I've been a fan of Dave from the minute he hit WWE and this is so heartwarming to see his love of his puppers. When he mentioned he had once had Great Danes, I perked up a bit as they are my favorite. Pitties have the best doggie smiles. I wish the city I live in didn't have a ban on pitties; they are just so sweet and loving.
Hello 👋 how are you doing over there?
Miluji Davea ,přála bych si mít takového muže.Je to velký silný muž,ze kterého člověk má respekt.Ale má srdce na pravém místě.V WWE byl pro mě vždycky vítěz i když nevyhrál.Přeji mu i jeho psím dětem šťastný a dlouhý život❤❤❤U Davea mají pohádkový život
So successful, yet so humble and kind. Mucho respect to Dave.
I absolutely admire how genuine he is! Just so rare!
LOVE that he rescues pitties.
I have 2 rescued ones myself 😍
Don’t know why I clicked on this but I’m glad I did. Knew Dave was a great person but this makes him even greater.
Reminds me why I absolutely LOVE this man!!!!
This is such a sweet video. That story of Penny, the run and hide training for his dogs. Soooo precious.
Dave you are a great Hooman! Thank you for being an advocate for adopting, especially Pitties!
Dave is a lovely man! And 4 beautiful dogs too.
Dave is the man
Man this made me like Dave ever more I love dogs I have 2 i did have 3 but lost one to cancer last year. Still can’t watch a video with him in it without crying.
It's not often you go to the comments on UA-cam and see no negativity or assholes whatsoever, it's quite refreshing if you ask me.
Dave really is a great guy.
"We' too have saved a lot of dogs over the years. We have a Pit, Luna Beam we saved 2 years ago. And just today a dog my wife fostered for 2 months was returned and we decided to keep him. The woman had him one day. Leo was one of 85 dogs that were saved from one home in Mansfield, Ohio. A lot of them that had been adopted were returned. For lack of a better description, they're almost feral. But we worked with Leo and he did get better. So now we finish the adventure. Great interview.
I've been a fan of Dave Bautista for years, but every time I see him, i like him more and more.
Genuinely a kind and caring soul love him even more for how he treats animals
Hello 👋 how are you doing over there?
This interview made me so happy. What a kindhearted lovely person and what a wholesome happy life he’s given those pups 💕
Someone like Dave deserve pitbulls. He is big, responsible, have a good job, kind hearted. ❤
My experience with pitbulls has always been that they are absolute sweethearts.
I love how he stopped walking when his dog laid down. Others would have tugged and coaxed. ❤
He seems like a great guy. I really liked him in Blade Runner 2049 and in the short that is out from before the movie too. I haven't seen him in anything else other than the Marvel stuff, where he's great too of course, but I felt the Blade Runner part was more normal acting.
Omg how do you NOT know who Dave is?!!! He is freaking awesome! Seems like such a nice guy. I love how he rescued his babies. 🐾❤️
👈 This was my first rescue Cesar. I lost him at 13 last summer. Best dog I've ever had! Thanks Dave for being a awesome human!
I can't believe how big Penny and Tallulah have gotten already! I feel like I just saw their puppy pictures online a week ago ToT What a good family this is.
What a kind hearted soul…..such a beautiful story about his relationship with dogs and journey. So happy he rescued such amazing dogs….Penny’s story had me in tears 🙏🏻 blessed she got out of where she was and is in the best forever home she deserves!
Hello 👋 how are you doing over there?
Dave Bautista has a kind heart and is very humble. I saw him in Santa Monica at night, pulled over and called his name. He took the time to have a conversation with me and my friend, talk about bodybuilding and took a picture with us.
Oh wow! What a beautiful story from a kind soul. Pit bulls really are the most loving, empathetic dogs I’ve ever met. ♥️
Such a chill kind man what a legend
