I'm so sorry to read this Bless her heart and you for her love and wonderful life . I'm so glad that she went in your Dad's arms . Fly free dear Nikki . ( Hugs ).
Oh my... I am so sorry for your loss but I am glad she went in peace and didn't put yall through the tough descision (like you said in your original post).
RIP Nikki girl and run free.
I'm happy that she had an amazing life with you, and the best last day ever. You and your family did the right thing for her. But I'm so sorry for her loss - for all of you. Give your family a hug for me, okay?
Your story made me tear up. We lost my childhood dog (a toy poodle named Daisy) in the same way. You definitely have a lot to be thankful for... Nikki was very lucky to go in a peaceful way. She was kept comfortable and surrounded by love until the very end.
