Doc arrived at our home at 9:30 this morning to put our little Papillon asleep.
My wife chose to not be present.
I fed her favorite meal before he arrived, and petted and loved on her.
He gave her the twilight sleep, first, and she just dozed off in my arms.
Then, he administered the final dose.
She went peacefully with no problems, whatsoever.
I held up fine, until I started placing her toys in the little casket that I had made for her.
One of the hardest things I've ever done.
Wifey is holding up better than I expected....better than me, in fact.
