My life flashed before my eyes!

Oh my gosh! Thank god for that traffic guard. I have nightmares a lot about my dogs getting hit, thanks to Marta running off several times by busy intersections.
I wouldn't hesitate to give him anything you think is appropriate- he saved Nicki's life!! I would gladly hand over my life savings (if I had any) rather than lose one of my pups! Of course, the guard probably wouldn't feel comfortable accepting that...
I think a thank you card explaining how you grateful you feel would be nice, and like other's suggestion a gift card or maybe even flowers. I'm so glad Nicki is safe and sound!!

OMG That is so scary. I, too, have had the heart-stopping experience of seeing a dog break away and run into the street (although not as busy as your street). Niki, sweetie, I know how exciting it can be to see your friends, but you must listen to Mommy, okay? {{{Hugs to both of you}}}.
