Default How do you know? End of Life question

As some of you know, my Paris has collapsing trachea and is blind. He is steadily getting worse but I am distraught over choosing the level of suffering I want him to endure. He is eating, but not gobbling up his food like he used to and not eating right as I put the food down, he will come later and eat it. He hasn't played squeaky sock in several days. He has coughing fits all day long and each breath is noisy. He wakes up in the night fighting for air. Some days he crys almost all day.
The vet said on 12/9 he wasn't in pain, and his heart sounded good and no fluid in his lungs.
Some people have said you can see it in their eyes, but Paris is blind.
It breaks my heart to see him like this, but how do I know it is time?
My eyes fill with tears to even think about it, but I want to do the right thing for my best friend.
