Nickel was a sweet and loving dog who liked to jump on top of his dog house like Snoopy and who ever night at sundown would come and sleep on our porch. He is the son of my husband's childhood dog who died last year after 16 long years of life. Life will be hard without him. He walked in our muddy driveway yesterday so we have his pawprints to remind us for a little while. Nickel will be missed very much by our family, especially by my children.
