Lewis Hamilton is one proud dog dad.
The F1 driver regularly travels around the globe for his racing career, however, his 12-year-old bulldog Roscoe, is always close by.
Roscoe has become famous in his own right. The adorable pooch has developed a massive following online, thanks to his own personal Instagram account created by Hamilton, which boasts over 1.3 million followers, as of this writing.
Why Lewis Hamilton says Roscoe is the 'most mellow dog there is'
After gracing the cover of "Vogue" last month, Hamilton is now sharing some insight about his beloved bulldog in the Aug. 19 edition of the outlet's sister publication "Dogue."
“He likes fancy, fancy sneakers,” the driver told the outlet. “He picks up my Dior trainers and always takes them with him. He’s so bougie.”
Hamilton continued, "He is the kindest, such a sweetheart. Anyone can approach him from anywhere. He has never attacked anyone ever."
"He’s super, super easy. He doesn’t go crazy around other dogs. He’s just probably the most mellow dog there is, really, until he sees a bowling ball or football," he said.
When he was looking for the perfect dog, Hamilton said he "scanned through probably a thousand dogs and looked through all these documents."
The F1 driver said he was searching for the best pedigree when he came across Roscoe’s dad, a Spanish champion, and his mother, an Irish champion.
It's safe to say that Roscoe the bulldog has become a champion, just like his parents.
Hamilton's dog was featured in "F1: The Movie," alongside his dad and Brad Pitt, and has dabbled in brand ambassadorships. When auditioning for commercials, 9 times out of 10, Hamilton's bulldog gets picked and brings home a paycheck to his proud human.
