I had a dog named Duchess
July 30, 2013 by William K. Wolfrum
The world will never know how much goodness and how much love it has lost.
I took Duchess from the cradle to her final breath.
And she paid me back by loving me completely and protecting our family.
You’ll never know how much was lost when she had to go home.
But I know. And my heart will never stop breaking.
I miss you, Duchess. I always will. Thank you for being such a big part of my life.

I didn’t know Dutchess, but I have known the love of a dog. It’s unique on this earth. #sharingtears
I am so very sorry for your loss. I’m love animals probably more than people. What an amazing looking doggy!
Sending you positive thoughts!
What a sweet dog. I’m so sorry for your loss.
Holy cow. Did I write that comment? I’m going to pretend that I was hacked.
“I’m love animals.”
So sorry for your loss, Duchess was a beauty! Nobody loves you more purely than our pets.
I’m so sorry for your loss. My guy is getting up there in age, and I dread the day. My heart goes out to you.

So sorry, Bill. She looks like a wonderful lady. Our dog, Kimba, was with us for 17 years and loved us almost as much as we loved him. What a dog!
They are more than companions; they’re beloved family members who are never, ever forgotten.
This was a lovely tribute. Thanks for sharing.

Just saw this, my man. My heart goes out. As committed dog-people, here on the Northern San Francisco peninsula, you thoughts and atheist prayers are with you. Peace out.
[…] trend of feeling I need to write about my dogs when they die. I’ve done it before for Max and Duchess. I don’t want to do that any more. Especially for Jack. Because Jack is to be remembered for […]
