I work with animal rescue groups as well, and I have never seen anyone do what you suggested. Pushing a dog's head under water would be considered animal abuse. That is not the way to break them out of digging, it is a great way to scare and scar them. Try and catch them when they are digging and put their nose in the dirt they have dug up. My German Shepherd digs and that is what the certified dog trainer said to do. You can always have a trainer come out and help you as well.
