JB, Im so, so sorry for your loss. I think Lev said further back, and I echo it, thank you for being there for her when she needed you, both at the beginning and the end. A truly heartbreaking decision to have to make, doubly so for such a young pup, but she knew only happiness with you, those pics are fabulous and its clear she was much loved. A beautiful little pup and now at peace x
you gave her a lovely life for the short time she was here x I had to have my Springer Spaniel put to sleep late last year after her second collapse in as many weeks with an illness that floored her and baffled the vet. Remember holding her in one arm, signing the euthanasia consent form with the other and homing in on Aged 8yrs, 3months which made me feel so angry and cheated out of her. Can't even begin to imagine what it must be like to lose yours at just 8-months that's so cruel. 
Thank you all so much for your lovely kind comments. I'm totally discombobulated, neither of us can stop crying.
When we were trying to make the decision, I put a call in to our regular vet who came out of a consult to call me back. He was absolutely lovely, told us we were making the right decision and said to give her a hug from him, he sounded like he was on the edge of tears too. That was the impact she had on everyone she met, hardly anyone could pass us by without saying how beautiful she was, but I guess she was just too beautiful for this world.
I've probably posted most of these before but here's a selection of a favourite few pics of her.
