Thanks for all your kind words. The word got out about my Ally girl and my phone has been ringing off the hook, people coming to the house.
I would take her into my DARE classes as a special treat for my students and her. My students fell in love with her from the moment they met. Even students that had a fear of dogs would come and see her. Walking down a hallway with 400 students in it and her not on a leash. She was a hard worker. She never lost focus of her resposibilities. She touched the lives of so many in her 16 years and I know for the rest of my life she will still bring a smile to my face and all the others she touched.
She simply wore out her body. Her mind was still as sharp as when she was a puppy. She came to me today asking me to end her pain. It was the hardest thing I've ever done but also the right thing. When talking to my students I tell them that the right thing to do doesn't always feel right, but it's alway the right thing. My words came home to me today and I know it was the right thing to do.
