Happiness is a warm hound dogger 2012-07-09 - Adair Co., KY - Photo family photo. Donovan Baker is sleeping like a baby. So is his buddy, Copper, the Hound Dogger / a blood hound. Donovan adopted Hound Dogger at the animal shelter in Glasgow. Hound Dogger does what a blood hound is supposed to do. She "Hound Dogs." Donavan watches her on the trail and says, "Look, Daddy, she's hound dogging." Donavan has a cat name Gizzard, a somewhat rotund yellow tabby, who usually stands in higher stead. Gizz does not take his toys, as Copper is wont to do. Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.
