Certainly, as a part of Denise Richards’ family for 13 years, Hank had seen a lot. The canine would have been there for his owner’s pre-wedding jitters in 2002, the birth of daughter Sam in 2004, her divorce from Charlie Sheen in 2005, the birth of daughter Lola that same year and the adoption of Eloise in 2011!
While the girls are undoubtedly upset over the loss of Hank, they do still have a number of pets at home to turn to for comfort. How many, exactly? “The number varies, because I’m often fostering,” Denise Richards said previously. “Let’s just say: I built a dog room at my house.”
