Hamilton puts his racy pooch’s sperm on ice

SAO PAULO: Lewis Hamilton’s pet bulldog, Roscoe, who occasionally accompanies the triple Formula One world champion to races, has had his sperm frozen to ensure he can have puppies in future.

Hamilton, racing to thwart Nico Roseberg’s title hopes at the Brazilian Grand Prix yesterday, revealed the news on an Instagram account (roscoelovescoco).

“Roscoe in great spirits. Due to some complications, we had to have him snipped,” the Briton, a regular on the celebrity gossip pages, wrote. “However, since he’s the best looking bulldog, I decided to freeze his sperm.”
