If you are a Lewis Hamilton fan, then you definitely know who Roscoe is. To say the very least, the Briton is a dog person. And not just dogs, Hamilton loves all animals. The seven-time world champion completely changed his life and turned vegan for the same reason. Hamilton is also a vocal advocate of animal cruelty.

The Mercedes man loves spending his time around wildlife as he’s been pictured with multiple wild animals. However, one animal he’s often pictured with is his pal, Roscoe. We frequently see Roscoe walking beside Hamilton, especially on his Thursday paddock walks.

Roscoe, the bulldog, is now nine years old and lives a life of privilege, as one of Hamilton’s favorite living beings. Roscoe, just like Hamilton, is vegan and follows a diet, according to the Mercedes man.

Disclosing Roscoe’s diet, Hamilton said, “He is vegan. He eats quinoa and vegetables everyday day and it’s literally changed his life. He’s like a puppy again at nine years old.”

Roscoe is living a very healthy lifestyle, which he switched to in 2020. Not just a healthy diet, Roscoe also boasts a healthy following on Instagram with 627K followers. The Instagram page, under the username roscoelovescoco, shares Roscoe’s adventures with master Hamilton.

Apart from the massive following, Roscoe even earns as much as $700 a day. Hamilton’s Bulldog takes after his master and models on the side, earning him quite a decent paycheck.
