Thank you to everyone for your kind words about Charlie. Someone told me today that friends double your joy and halve your sorrow. Thank you https://t.co/jfhvQ4FjlJ

In a post on her website, Drummond said she will allow parents to decide whether or not to tell their children about Charlie's death.
"It might not be necessary if they are younger!" she added.
Drummond is the television personality behind Food Network's "The Pioneer Woman," which stems from her longtime blogging about ranch life and Southern living.
She recently opened The Mercantile in Pawhuska, Oklahoma, where she lives.
