I did not adopt her,, she adopted me.. and that is my thanks,, I ran her the fuck over,, I killed my little dog…
Sounds like you have her a great life for 15 years. If this was different behavior from before, she could have been declining a bit cognitively. 15 years is an amazing life for any dog! Be thankful you had her and I'm sorry that it went this way, but it is definitely not your fault!
My dad did something similar. Many years ago he got a 7 week old toy Chihuahua. He set it on the floor, got distracted, and you can guess the rest.
Its horrible. But its still an accident. Give it time. Its going to suck for a while. When you feel up to it, maybe do a little volunteering at your local shelter in her honor.
SHE adopted you, 15 years ago
AND now SHE decided to go - running in front of your truck, which she never did before.
It was an accident, you did not kill her, she killed herself.
Grieve for the loss of your little friend, but don't burden yourself with self-hate and guilt.
God knows your heart and mind, he will comfort and soothe your heart, if you let go of attacking yourself.
