I'm so sorry, Val, that no more could be done for Duke. He had a wonderful life in a great home, and he knew how much he was loved.

Rest in peace, Duke. You will not be forgotten here.

oh val, i cannot tell you how sorry i am. the only problem with loving a dog, they leave too soon and the hole in the heart can be immense. i've read your stories, laughed, cried, and rejoiced in how you both saved each other. i am so glad you found each other. ((hugs)) joyce

What a beautiful tribute to Duke, and the Charm was just beautiful also. It brought tears to my eyes. I'm no good with words, Val, but I really do pray that God will comfort you in the months to come until the day you can let a new dog into your heart. I know it is going to take a very special dog to fill that huge part that Duke filled, and he did fill a lot of your heart, as you filled his. He knew you loved him, and that is what matters so much.

Sending you lots of Hugs, Val. ((((((HUGS))))))

Val, I'm really at a loss for words. I'm truly sorry about Duke. Loosing your best friend and cherished family member is never easy. Duke will forever live in your heart. The charm you picked out to honor his memory is beautiful. I wish there was something I could do to ease you pain. You will be in my thoughts and prayers. (((Hugs)))

Val - I loved the rawhide memory you shared. What a Mama's boy Duke was, and so goofy running around the house with that rawhide!

I hope, when you are ready, that you can share some of your favourite memories of Duke.

I pray for easing of your pain...{{{hugs}}}

Val, I'm so sorry I didn't check in sooner...
I'm so sorry.. I wish I had words to help you heal.

Duke- You will be missed by many that never knew you, I'll be looking forward to meeting you one day at the bridge. Until then... let your mom know you're around once in a while. Help her heal... she misses you and will always love you.
RIP Sweet Duke.
{{{{{{{HUGS}}}}}} to you Val.

I am so sorry, Val. Duke was such a precious boy. We will all miss him very much. I know your heart is broken, but time will ease the pain. You will never forget him, but you will learn to love again and you will see yourself starting to smile when you think about him. The tears will eventually be replaced by smiles.

Rest in peace sweet boy Duke. Please say hi to Graham for me. I miss him so much.
