Adopted on July 3, 2024, Duchess Ada walked into Richard and Dianna’s lives ready to take her rightful place—not just in their home, but in their hearts. Now known as Duchess Jeanne, named in honor of Dianna’s mother, this golden girl has brought laughter, love, and plenty of daily walks to her new royal court.
Their first memory together was as sweet as it gets: Duchess had her very first ice cream with her new family. Since then, she’s made it clear she loves nothing more than walking Daddy (sometimes twice a day!), riding in the car with her head out the window, and greeting every family member with her signature royal charm.
She has quite the personality—adorably snorting in her sleep, dramatically sighing, shaking
At home, she’s playful and full of surprises, especially when she rolls happily in the backyard dirt like it’s her private spa. And while she refused to get on any furniture at home, the moment they arrived at an Airbnb during vacation, there she was, confidently lounging on the couch like she’d always belonged. After all, a true duchess knows when to relax.
Duchess Jeanne continues to delight her family with her loyal nature, protective instincts when visitors come to the door, and the way she faithfully follows Daddy from room to room.
From trips to Florida’s west coast to an upcoming adventure in Georgia, this Benevolent Ruler is living her best life, spreading joy, ruling with kindness, and winning hearts one wag at a time.
