The seven times world champion tells his dog on Instagram, after in these days he had given up on many commitments to stay close to him: “to make him ‘sleep’ one of the most difficult decisions of my life”
Lewis Hamilton’s dog did not make it. To communicate the disappearance of Roscoe was the same Ferrari pilot through his social channels. Bulldog, an inseparable companion for over ten years inside and outside the slopes, died in the arms of the seven times world champion. “After four days of intensive care, during which he fought with all his strength, I had to make the most difficult decision of my life and say goodbye to Roscoe. He never stopped fighting until the end,” wrote Ferrari pilot in a long message published on Instagram. The British champion, who had renounced several commitments in these days to stay next to the dog, has told the pain of the choice to put an end to the suffering of the animal: “to fall asleep ‘a dog is one of the most painful experiences and I feel a profound connection with all those who have experienced the loss of a beloved pet”. Hamilton then recalled the indissoluble bond with Roscoe: “I am very grateful and honored to have shared my life with such a beautiful soul, an angel and a true friend. Welcoming Roscoe in my life was the best decision I ever made and I will keep forever the memories we have created together”.
