4) Faded Love
Heading into the wild outback, Hank goes in search of his true love, the charming Miss Beulah. Hank is sure he can win Beulah's heart - but first he'll need the help of a powerful aphrodisiac.
Hank is literally at the end of his rope in his tenth adventure. It's roundup time at the ranch and Hank is left behind, tied to a post, while a high-bred border collie named Bennie takes Hank's place and runs the show. How can Hank restore himself as Head of Ranch Security and reclaim his fame and fortune?
The second book in the Hank the Cowdog series opens with Hank defending the ranch against the attack of a Silver Monster Bird. Later he is stricken with the dreaded disease, Eye-Crosserosis, and unless he can find a cure for this dangerous condition, his position as Head of Ranch Security is at stake! In his quest for the cure, Hank visits the cave of a witchy little owl named Madame Moonshine, and some crazy adventures follow.
When Hank finds himself up against Rip and Snort, the coyote brothers, he knows he has to do something fast. Hank unleashes his secret weapon, the Deadly Ha-Ha Game. The plan seems to work like a charm, but then Hank and his sidekick Drover find that even they cannot resist the lure of this deadly game. What happens next is no laughing matter! Is there such a thing as too much laughter?
When it comes to dealing with Tuerto, the one-eyed stud horse from the next ranch over, Hank's usual approach is not to approach him at all. But when Tuerto breaks loose and charges Little Alfred and his cousins, it's up to Hank to save them.
