Digger waited on Pet Finder the two months it took me to convince my husband that he was the dog for our family. My husband's family at one time raised pure bred Labs and he wanted nothing but a Lab puppy from a breeder. Digger is a mix and was six months old when he finally came home. He had been abused and it took a year of trust building for him to begin behaving like a dog. Five years later, my husband says that Digger is the best dog he has every had. Along with our 12 year old son, they go on long walks together and "Digger-ventures." We can't imagine life without him.
