7/7/22 – Lastly, I learned today that Dig Dug was allowed to cross the rainbow bridge after a battle with a neurological disease. Here is Dig Dug’s original story:
“This is about Dig Dug.–This sweet guy was running scared in July, 2013. After one hour of being chased, the only way to get him out of danger, as cars were weaving around him, was for the police to taser him. Some good people, who had been leaving church, witnessed the incident and agreed to take in the dog and find help. Although the couple rescued mastiffs, they couldn’t use their rescue’s dollars to help this guy and called out to other rescues for financial help. Fortunately, they were referred to us and we were happy to help. The good news was that the tasering did not result in any permanent damage and all he needed was an exam, vaccinations, and neutering.
The Happy Update: Dig Dug was eventually adopted by the daughter of the woman who referred the rescuers to us. The daughter and I have continued to stay in touch and here is Dig Dug’s transformation and his most recent photo of being in a motel on his way to Colorado for a vacation with the family. Happy New Year to Dig Dug and the Wolf family. – Diana”
And, here is our friend and Dig Dug’s mom, Amber Wolf’s post from yesterday:
“He told us he was ready to go meet his crew at the bridge. A bitter sweet end. Sweetest most loyal sidekick to ever walk this planet! The last of our OG’s. Thank you for choosing us to be your family. You did a great job being the decoy dog to all the fosters, and a great companion to our family. We had another fantastic day with you, laughing til the very end. Grateful to the badass tech and Dr. that took care of you today. We finally got to witness you at peace and comfortable. Thank you bubby for giving us the best years. Rest easy now Dig Dug you will be missed 
“
Dig Dug, you were much loved and I remember that day when I got the call to help. Have fun with all of your buddies who went before you. Hugs. – diana.
