Ty Beanie Baby - Digger the Dog

This item is an original Ty Beanie Baby plush dog named 'Digger'. He is approximately 8 inches in length, featuring a light brown or tan-colored body with contrasting dark brown ears and a small dark brown tail. The plush is constructed from soft polyester fabric and filled with PVC or PE plastic pellets (beans) to give it its signature 'beanie' weight and floppy pose. The dog is designed in a lying position with four splayed legs. Facial details include two black plastic bead eyes, black eyebrows, and a small black plastic nose. A critical identifying feature is the iconic red heart-shaped 'Ty' swing tag attached to the left ear. Based on the visible yellow star on the red heart tag, this specimen is likely from the later 1990s (post-1996). The condition appears to be excellent, with the fabric retaining its original texture and color. The tag appears intact, although there is a slight curve typical of storage. The stitching is tight, and there are no visible stains, odors, or balding of the plush fabric. This specific model, Digger, was first introduced in 1995 and underwent various production iterations, including different tag generations which significantly influence collector value.
