Denise Richards' Pet Dog Dies

Denise Richards is in mourning after her beloved pet dog died on Sunday (20Jan13).

The former Bond girl took to her Twitter.com page to pay tribute to her 13-year-old French bulldog Hank and share a photograph of the pooch with her fans.

She writes, "Last night (20Jan13) we lost our beloved Hank… I will miss him dearly, 13 yrs (years) old… been there for me thru (sic) it all. Best dog ever & part of our family."

Hank wasn't Richards' only pet dog - she adopted Tara, a puppy displaced by superstorm Sandy, in November (12) after falling in love with the Labrador while volunteering at the North Shore Animal League America organisation in Long Island.
