In Memory of Digger
We're so sorry to say that Joe and Anne Pugh, who adopted Digger in September 2009, have had to say goodbye to him. Digger had liver cancer, discovered just a couple of days before his passing. Joe and Anne had to make the difficult decision to let Digger cross over Rainbow Bridge. Even though they had Digger for only 6 mos, they report that he was the best dog they ever had - and they have had several senior dogs. Digger quickly became, at 14yrs old, an integral member of the family and went everywhere with them - the bank, store, even down to their beach house. He also attended meetings where people were grieving over the loss of a pet. Digger's presence made them feel better.
Everyone who met him loved him. He was glued to Joe and Anne, a true Velcro Cocker! He was their little gentlemen. They said he added so much to their lives. Anne was going to see about having Digger get certified as a therapy dog. That's how sweet he was. The only regret that they have is that he wasn't in their lives longer. Even though their time with Digger was short he had touched their hearts deeply and is going to be sorely missed.
Very nice story, RIP Digger.
