Duke

We picked up Duke (formally) known as Droopy in October 2014 as he came on a doggie bus. Duke arrived from Alabama; he was 1 years old. We were so excited we had just lost our other Bassett Hound named Sherlock. Duke was so loveable and full of energy. The eleven years we had with him were a joy in our lives. We were better for having him, he loved people and other dogs. Everywhere we went, they loved him. WE moved to Florida in 2020, and he loved to lay on the grass to sunbathe, receive belly rubs and to chase ducks and rabbits. This past September of 2025, Duke became ill and developed Cancer. We did all we could to save him but on December 2019, 2025, we had to let him go. Duke crossed the rainbow bridge. We are beyond devastated and heartbroken. The loss is very overwhelming; he was a part of our everyday lives. We will never forget Duke, we know that he is now with his doggie friends that left before him in heaven playing and being shown around, pain free and happy. Mommy will always love and miss you!!

We would like to thank TSBHR for bringing Duke into our lives, perhaps one day we will see you again Duke. We will always love and miss you Dukester, Dukie!!
