F1 Superstar Lewis Hamilton Faces Heart-Wrenching Crisis as Beloved Dog Roscoe is Hospitalized!
In a shocking turn of events, Formula 1 champion Lewis Hamilton has taken to social media to rally his fans for prayers and good vibes after enduring “scary hours” alongside his cherished bulldog, Roscoe. This deeply emotional post has left Hamilton’s followers concerned for both the racing icon and his furry friend, who has been a loyal companion since his adoption in 2013.
Roscoe, known for his vibrant personality and adorable appearances in the F1 paddock, has recently been grappling with serious health issues. The 13-year-old bulldog, who once stole the spotlight alongside Hamilton’s late dog Coco, is no stranger to the limelight, but this time, his well-being has taken a worrying turn. Just earlier this year at Silverstone, Hamilton revealed that Roscoe had gone deaf. And if that wasn’t enough, the bulldog faced yet another battle when diagnosed with pneumonia in April.
In a heart-wrenching update shared on Instagram, Hamilton posted a photo of Roscoe in an oxygen kennel, confirming that his beloved pet had been hospitalized. Hamilton’s plea was simple yet poignant: “It’s been a scary few hours, please everyone keep Roscoe in your thoughts and prayers.” The emotional weight of this message resonated with fans and animal lovers alike, as they rallied to support the F1 star during this troubling time.
While Hamilton races around the globe, Roscoe is cared for by animal trainer Kirstin McMillan, who frequently shares updates about the four-legged star on her own Instagram. McMillan echoed Hamilton’s sentiments, showing solidarity and support for the champion in this distressing period. Following Roscoe’s pneumonia diagnosis, he underwent several treatments, including acupuncture and a high-dose Vitamin C IV drop, alongside a regimen of strong antibiotics.
Despite his recent health challenges, Roscoe has been a media darling, even gracing the pages of Vogue in a photoshoot humorously titled “Dogue.” Hamilton couldn’t help but share his admiration for Roscoe, stating, “Best quality? I think it’s his temperament, honestly. He is the kindest, such a sweetheart. Anyone can approach him from anywhere.” Hamilton praised Roscoe’s gentle demeanor, adding, “He has never attacked anyone ever. He’s super, super easy.”
In a light-hearted moment, Hamilton shared his dream of taking Roscoe surfing in Hawaii, despite the fact that the bulldog has a lifelong fear of water. “He’s been terrified of water since he was a pup,” Hamilton explained, contrasting Roscoe’s aversion to water with Coco’s love for the waves. “He runs away from the waves,” he laughed, adding, “But the funniest thing is when I wash him in the shower, he puts his head down as if he’s in trouble.”
As fans await further updates on Roscoe’s health, the outpouring of love and support for both Hamilton and his furry companion is palpable. Will Roscoe pull through this latest health scare? Only time will tell, but one thing is certain: the bond between Lewis Hamilton and his beloved bulldog is as powerful as the roar of an F1 engine.
