Someone please help me find this Green Skull game...

Hi everyone,
I'm trying to find a game I used to play in the early 2000s.
I had it on a floppy disc and the aim of the game was to find a flashing green skull. It's in the POV of a young boy with brown hair.
I remember you would dig in your neighbours yard while their dog attacked you. You would also play basketball in their yard.
Anyone know the name of this game?
Thanks guys!!

going to need a bit more information on this one.

There were so many shareware games on Floppy discs, so it may be difficult to track down.

When you say ' It's in the POV of a young boy', do you mean it was in first person? What sort of graphics were they?

There was an FMV game called Trev to the Rescue where you had to dig in a garden and there was a dog that tried attacking you that you had to distract.

You are honestly the best! This has been 5 years.... and you found it! that's the one. Can't believe it since I had such little info to give. Thanks Dan!!!!

No problem. I spend enough time on /r/tipofmyjoystick to be able to deal with little information. Plenty of people over there say 'I remember playing this game when I was a kid', with no indication to how old they are.
