My life flashed before my eyes!

Wow Nicki had a close call! I think any kind of acknowledgement would be very thoughtful, so many people don't acknowledge or say thank you for things. I am glad Nicki is okay.

How scary. I'm glad everything turned out allright.
I think a nice thankyou card with maybe some sort of gift certificate.
Do you know anything about him, like what he likes to collect or do?

Sounds like Nicki will need to have her leash put on before she steps outside from now on.

Thats what I used to do. There was a time where I could never trust her. She was a mad darter. I spent many days chasing after her... and she was hit once years and years ago (only a tap, according to my dad who was chasing her at the time)

The older and lazier she got, the more I let my gaurd down on her. I NEVER expoected her to do this today! She is usually so lazy and sore anymore that we hardly ever take walks because she doesn't have the energy to complete the walk. So to see her run off like this shocked me completely.

She's still out on the leash, happily watching the world go by. There was a time not so long ago that she HATED to be out on the leash by herself - she demanded human attention, but now she's as happy as can be to sniff the air and watch the cars and people walk by. Occasionally she'll get excited about a dog that walks by, but to her just laying there in the grass is pure heaven.

Oh my goodness! That would scare the daylights out of anyone!

I was going to suggest a gift card as well, and try to pick somewhere neutral. My parents got a $100 gift card to Red Lobster for Christmas. I said "But we don't even like Red Lobster" and my mom was like "Yes we do! They have *awesome* cheese biscuits!!!" LOL. So, $100 worth of cheese biscuits may be alright for us, but for some ... maybe not so much

Check the back of the gift card, usually you can use those at any Darden restaurant (Red Lobster, Olive Garden, Smokey Boney, Seasons 52, or Bahama Breeze) We love to give those out because there are so many options of places to use them at.

NICKI!!!

YIKES, I'd have had heart failure. Many thanks to the crossing guard.

My first thought for a gift was gloves, maybe with a scarf or hat set.......for the cold winter mornings to come.
