Woman Adopts Dying Dog To Make His Final Days As Happy As Possible
194Kviews
There’s no Make-A-Wish Foundation for dogs, but if there were, Nicole Elliot could be its CEO. The Columbus, Georgia resident recently adopted Chester, a cancer-ridden dog, from Animal Ark Rescue. When Eliot saw “hospice needed” posted by a charity, she decided to take the dog in to make his last days as happy as possible.
“I am trying to give him normal doggy experiences that he may have never had the chance to do before, and a ton of spoiling,” she told WTVM. “So far he took a ride with the windows down, he had a famous Nathans hot dog, he had a doggie sundae, he had a milk and oatmeal bath (spa day), he went on a shopping spree where he got a cozy bed, bandannas, lots of treats, and toys.”
More info: animalarkrescue.com | Facebook | Instagram (h/t: wtvm)
Chester was found in a shelter where he was dying from cancer
Nicole Elliot couldn’t bear the thought of him dying alone – she “fell in love the moment [she] saw him”
“I had to consider it for a while and decide if I could handle it. I decided it would be an amazing experience to take on”
“I knew that it would be my responsibility to make his final days the best I could, to mine and his ability”
“As you can see his favorite spot is on the center console. I think he feels like a king up there”
“I am trying to give him normal doggy experiences that he may have never had the chance to do before, and a ton of spoiling”
“He doesn’t seem to be in much pain, but he is slow due to his age”
“Out of all of that his favorite part has been any of the food and treats – he still has a HUGE appetite”
“He likes his hair blowing in the wind, but his legs aren’t stable enough to stand and put his head out the window”
“He had surgery to remove some tumors. Soon after more tumors started showing up on his body. Today he has many cancerous lumps all over his body”
“He is also heart worm positive. He is still so sweet and as perky as he could be”
Nicole’s daughter Paisley also tries to make Chester’s days as joyful as possible
“So far he took a ride with the windows down, he had a famous Nathans hot dog, he had a doggie sundae, he had a milk and oatmeal bath (spa day), he went on a shopping spree where he got a cozy bed, bandannas, lots of treats, and toys”
“It will be so tough to lose him shortly, so I decided to take the time he has left (which is undetermined, but not guessed to be very long,) and make it as happy as I can”

Hero!
wonderful, thank you
This dog is so sad that it breaks my heart :(
What do you mean so sad? In general?
I think she meant the dog's story is sad, Angie. It is but what a wonderful human being to make his last days happy! There's a special place in heaven for people like you, Nicole! Bless you!
Poor little guy is probably in some pain. Plus he was recently in a shelter and that, I imagine, is not a happy place for dogs.
I mean He IS sad - there is so much sadness in his eyes and body language. That was just my first thought when I saw the pictures.
yeah, you're right. Every single photo he looks scared out of his mind. Tail slumping, ears back, unhappy and overwhelmed. I'm not going to assume this is true but I can see why you said that.
Bless you for taking this on. Please be mindful of when it is time to put Chester down. No one should have to suffer when things get to a certain point. Thank you for filling his last days with love, joy and compassion. There should be more people out there like you.
We need more people like you. Thank you.
My God. What a sweet person to do that for a sweet, sweet dog. I admire and thank her.
Soooo sweet! A hero you are <3
Bless your heart. #gutted for your family to lose a love too soon! But Chester... yep. What a sweet pea. #Hero
I am crying my eyes out. Wish him a pain free happy last period on this earth.Thanks for the lady that is taking care of him. Bless you.
You are a wonderful person and what a beautiful lesson teach your child as well, all living creatures deserves love and kindness. This pup is so cute and looks so well thanks you.
Just awesome!!! This made my day. :-)
I'm crying. I knew that reading this was a bad idea :'(
<3
it takes an abundance of compassion and love.
I actually think, all things considered, he looks pretty happy in most of these pix. It's also great that he still has an appetite. I hope Nicole will be sensitive— when his time comes—and not let him suffer. What she's doing is lovely!
You are a wonderful human being!
You are not only doing something wonderful for this dog, but you are giving your daughter a wonderful role model.
how wonderful are you to take on such a sweet dog & giving him some very special memories for his last days - bless you for having such a kind heart to take on what will eventually be a very heartbreaking situation
how wonderful are you to take on this sweet dog & give him some great final days - bless you for having such a big heart to do this for him
What a lucky little dog to have such a great carer.
I'm sad that he doesn't have more time to enjoy being loved, but what a wonderful person to do this for him!
Great thing to do thank you!
You're very pawesome!! God bless you for giving him love, a home and not wanting for anything!!!
I wish I hadn't been cutting onions while viewing this post.......so happy you found each other, I hope his end is peaceful.
This brought tears to my eyes. God bless this woman for taking this dog in and showering him with TLC and love during his final days.
Aww, that is so touching. God bless this woman for adopting this dog and giving him some extra TLC in the final days of his life.
God bless you! :)
I think this woman has a beautiful, giving soul and the dog is very fortunate to have encountered her.
what a hero
Am absolutely in awe of Nicole. You're my new hero.
Beyond awesome. Love this story.
You are beyond awesome. Love this story.
Considering the cost of vet bills, yes! a real hero for making this pups last days enjoyable as possible!
bravo !
Such a selfless thing to do. You're not only only giving this little dog the best final days he's probably ever had, but you're teaching your little girl compassion. There should be more people in this world like you. What a better world it would be. You're not only beautiful on the outside by on the inside as well. God bless you for your kindness, your love, and your compassion. <3
What a magnificent heart this woman has - wish there were more like her.
What a magnificent heart this woman has - wish there were more like her!
Very sweet. Thank you. <3
I love the lady that she take care of this doggy. His eyes make me cry, so very very sad, it is not possible to look happy. Hope that he go softly to the rainbow bridge
Indead, his eyes are so sad that give me tears in my eyes.
You are just the sweetest. What a wonderful idea. He's probably living a tiny bit longer because of you. And definitely happier. Love how he looked after the spa day!
So nice ,and heart warming!!!!!
Thank you for sharing your love with him.
What a lovely thing to take on! Looks like he also has a buddy (the other dog in one of the pics?). Thanks for sharing!
It's absolutely wonderful what she's doing for little Chester and what a role model for her daughter
What a wonderful woman she is! And what a lucky dog to have had her look after him in his final days. It is such a sad, but an uplifting story :)
Brave, wonderful woman. I feel confident she'll do what is best for Chester when the time comes. <3
What a heart you have.
This woman's generosity of spirit almost breaks my heart. What a lovely thing to do!
I cried when reading this... thank you for your heartwarming help for an animal at his last days ;(((((
Heartwarming to see!!
Beautiful heroine, inside and out. I pray that this sweet boy has more time with her than expected; love can make such a huge difference, and while it may not cure his condition, it might give him just a bit more time. Either way, they are blessing each other.
God bless you Nicole!
God bless you Nicole :)
Joanna Les' I think maybe he is just not believing how great things just got!!! He may have some physical pain, but he is feeling the ve and the comfort. <3
Kiss him for me! Your heart is brave and big and I'm sure you are loved by many!
Bless you. What a beautiful thing to do!
This made me cry....I mean, I was almost sobbing sitting here at my desk......you are an angel...truly, the world needs more people like you Nicole!
God bless this lady and her daughter who are knowingly risking great heart ache in order to show Chester the love he so deserves. Take note everyone, this is what true compassion is all about and the lesson here is that all of God's creatures are worthy of love. More people need to do this........
I sat with all 3 of my dogs when they died. Luckily I could cry as hard and as much as I wanted to, my dog could not tell me to stop. I still keep their last collar and nametag they hade on. Be strong Nicole. And stay with him when you see the time has come. You will see the love in his eyes !! xxxxx
Thank God for people like this!!!! Thank you for stepping in and loving him until the end, where obviously his previous owners could not. You are a saint among dog lovers every where!!!!!
<3 <3 <3
What a compassionate, loving woman! And a wonderful example to her daughter!
Nicole & Paisley you make me believe there is hope for the Universe. I am so glad you found Chester and was able to do so much for him. Luis/Rio de Janeiro
Thanks Nicole. People like you make a difference and make us believe in hope for the Universe. Luis/Rio de Janeiro
Super osm! This woman is amazing.
I think it is a wonderful thing to do and the love he will give you in return will outweigh anything else. How do I know. One day an elderly grey hound walked up to my car as I got home. It was dark and it scared the begeebees out of me at the time. It was tatooed as an ex racing dog but despite many attempts we could not track its last owner. After having it vet checked we found it too had cancer. They offered to put her down. We kept her for the next nine months and gave her probably the best doggie days she had ever spent. On that final trip back to the vet she looked at us with such love and understanding as if to say thankyou. She also knew it was time so that she wouldn't suffer. On that day her legs collapsed completely and we knew it was time. Hard yes but also so rewarding that we had given her some doggie happiness. These special animals like special children are sent to us for a reason. The compassion I have had for animals since has been tremendus. Love her while you can.
Such a wonderful deed!
Nicole Elliot you are the most amazing wonderful woman! Thank you for your kindness and compassion. this poor little guy has obviously had a terribly rough life and you have done so much for him. You are an amazing example for your beautiful little girl - she will learn so much from her wonderful mother.
Nicole you are amazing for doing this. Chester will forever be grateful for what you did for him. You know you may be giving Chester a few more days or weeks or months by just showing him love. Now he has someone to live for. Good deeds never go unseen! Hugs!!
What wisdom! This woman knows that acts of love & compassion truly makes us beautiful. Sharing it with her daughter - what a life lesson! Sow the seeds of generosity & kindness & you set your children up for a healthy, meaningful & joyous life.
There is a special place in heaven for this woman and her family. Bless you.
How could anyone not like this? You ARE amazing!!! I pray that the grief you and your daughter will inevitably experience, will be short lived, and what you will have gained will be beyond wonderful. God bless you for what you have done!
The world need more people like you.
She is a GREAT person. I wish I knew more people like that, and hope they exist everywhere and we just rarely hear of them.
I love this woman for her compassion and kindness to this pup, but I worry how much pain he may be suffering. May the best thing she could do would be to put him down. I just don't know.
You're an angel. May you and chester have many wonderful adventures together.
My hats off to you. What a wonderful thing to do for the dog and your daughter!
Good on you, make a dog happy.
That's so sweet!!!!
SPECIAL LADY
God bless!!!!
It is Folks like you that restore my faith in humanity, You are both so lucky to have found each other, so heart warming, I am wishing that your God Bless you with all that life has to offer, you and Chester have touched my heart in so many ways.

Incredible woman! You deserve the world for easing this cutie into Doggy heaven :)
We did this with our own beloved dog, Hunter, but I am awed that someone adopted a dog to do it. God bless Nicole and Paisley.
Your are just one amazing person. My goodness our World needs more like you. You will make such a difference in your dog's last days
This is a wonderful story-I love to hear about good people who make a difference.

Not gonna cry, not gonna cry, not gonna... *sob* not.. *sniff* DAMN IT! *Cries like a baby*
Thank you Nicole and Paisley for your selfless act of rescuing Chester from a lonely, suffering death into the best days of Chester's life! Thank you, that the last face Chester saw, was the face of abiding love!
That is a very cute story! You are a very nice person!
Dear Nicole, thank you! This boy looks like my 14 years old girl dog. She has tumor too.
You are doing a good job. I could have never done that. Hats off to you and God bless.
really nice
Thank you x
Such a great gesture, to spend last of the poor guy days loved! Good Job

Nicole is an angel.
You are an awesome human being nicole with a very kind and beautiful heart very few people like you exist on earth God bless you !
You are also teaching your daughter what kind of person to be. Warm, loving, generous and caring.
What do you want to bet that dog lives longer than anyone imagines possible? ❤ doggie hospice=awesomeness
I think this woman is an angel. Instead of talking about God and scripture, more people should simply do wonderful and amazing things for others and display their faith. Thank you for your huge and compassionate heart!!! Enjoy your last days, little man.
hero
That is so wonderful. But there is a place that takes in old dogs and gives them love and spoiling on their last days. They even have pics on their wall of the doggies.
This dog is not sad it is being givin everything it deserved here on earth before he goes on. Nichole is an earth angel who has allowed him the joy of life om this planet that he hadn't been given. What a gift she has in her heart to take on such a wonderful journey with this wonderful dog. G-d bless you.
what a beautiful heartwarming story
Thanks
may the One bless your heart, Nicole
Nicole, you are a wonderful person.
Bless you and your family for providing love, security, safety and fun for this little dog as he moves toward the Bridge. You will be rewarded. Hugs.
Bless you for caring! No one should die without knowing love. and you have shown him that! What a beautiful life lesson she is teaching her daughter! <3
Thank you! That's so nice of you. I take my hat off to you!
Absolutely beautiful!!! Thank you so much for making his final days so full of live and joy! ❤❤❤
*love and joy that is
God bless you.
Absolutely lovely.
What an awesome woman!
It doesn't get any better than this (except for complete remission), and souls come no greater than Nicole's... This is how each of us - and each precious companion animal - should spend our final days... surrounded by compassion and love! My dear friend Rachel Brockway Mairose has initiated a 'hospice-foster" program under the auspices of her rescue, Secondhand Hounds - and places terminal companions in loving homes and arms, rather than let them pass alone, unwanted, and unloved... abandoned and destined for euthanasia in shelters, by those very same families who promised them "forever"... Sweet little Chester will depart this world filled with the knowledge that he was loved and cherished... which is the birthright of EVERY companion animal!
you are a very kind person. God bless you and your family!
I am not sure I could do it cause I know how painful it is to lose a pet. For a while I considered not having any but no matter how sad it gets we can give them a good life and better with me than anyone else I don't know about. My mama dog is now 10 years old a black lab and I have 2 of her children part shepherd and one of her grand children. I know when mama goes (the best dog I ever had) she will live on in them.
animals need more people like her!
Thank you so much for helping this adorable animal. I believe that God will reward you for the kindness.
What a great thing to do! We need more Nicole's! It would be great if we had hospice care for pets, just like we do for people. Thanks to Nicole!
We need more people with a big heart for dogs like Nicole. I have 3 from Animal Welfare.
She is an angel on earth! I hope their story goes viral so others can see how much love an older sick dog can still give <3
You are a priceless person ..with a really huge heart <3 <God love your pea picking soul ..He is so grateful to be with you ..you can see it in his eyes .Not because he is dieing ..Because he has to leave you too / Bless you
Your unselfish love really touches the core of my soul! My prayers go out to youand your beautify family and this precious sweet baby!
God bless you
Your a brave woman Nicole with a huge heart. This world needs more people like you xxxxxxxxxxx
both special angels
Good job, human!
I have been thinking of doing this with neighborhood cats. Yay for you! You are a hero!! I hope you inspire more people to do the same.
Im not crying, you are crying. Stupid onion ninjas everywhere.
Good girl! Get a cookie too! Sweet/yet difficult hing to do.
Overwhelming for the dog no doubt. Seems to be all about the human. The dog doesn't want surgery, haircuts, toys & treats - the human wants it. Way over the top.
Hero!
wonderful, thank you
This dog is so sad that it breaks my heart :(
What do you mean so sad? In general?
I think she meant the dog's story is sad, Angie. It is but what a wonderful human being to make his last days happy! There's a special place in heaven for people like you, Nicole! Bless you!

More power to you Nicole ! You're an angel sen for Chester ! I hope it will not be so painful for both of you when the time comes. Please follow up on this. I would love to see more heartwarming stories about your"adventures" with Chester. And remember ..."all dogs go to heaven" !
Incredible woman! You deserve the world for easing this cutie into Doggy heaven :)
We did this with our own beloved dog, Hunter, but I am awed that someone adopted a dog to do it. God bless Nicole and Paisley.
Your are just one amazing person. My goodness our World needs more like you. You will make such a difference in your dog's last days
This is a wonderful story-I love to hear about good people who make a difference.
