DENVER — A former Denver Sheriff ’s Department K-9 that was slated to be put down has found a new home.

Sheriff Elias Diggins told Denver7 Investigates Riggs displayed behavior issues such as growling and snapping with his handler's family, which was going to cut his time in the K-9 unit short. “We've since rethought that,” Diggins said. “When we got the call that your team was looking into this… I said, 'Let's look at this differently.' And I made the decision to move in a different direction. … We appreciate all of the folks that were concerned with the path that we were going down.
