No, you didn't fail her and the way you honor her is to take another rescue who would not have a life without you. I have learned through so many dogs and cats that I can not replace them but can show my appreciation by helping another. I think when she raised her head and looked at you that she was thanking you for giving her the gift of life and a pain free death. Wouldn't we all like that in our own lives. I am pretty sure she would not,nave wanted you to be pet free. I think animals teach us so much about love and devotion. Bless you for the love you gave her
