Poor Boomer, I'm so sorry! For him to die so suddenly it must have either been a very serious infection that progressed quickly or he may have had an issue such as a tumour or heart condition that had worsened over time. It would be impossible to speculate any further into what caused his death. Most importantly it does not sound like he suffered, he was a good age and I don't think there would have been anything you could have done.
