i wish i took a photo of his hole it was so deep i dug my fence 3 feet under ground and had fence that went horizontal under the ground to prevent them from coming in, it dug the hole from under my neighbors fence all the way under my fence i estimated maybe 30 to 40 feet he dug! they are so cute though!
