John R. Erickson
Hank and Drover must deal with all sorts of strange phenomena. They must defend the ranch against an attack of the terrible Charlie Monsters and a polka-dot midget. Then they must gather every ounce of courage they have to save the ranch from the Swirling Killer Tornado.
45) Slim's good-bye
What happens when Hank the Cowdog finds himself stuck in town and facing the mean, monster Great Dane, "Rambo"? Rambo's only weakness is that he's a car-barkaholic. He just can't resist chasing and barking at passing cars. Join Hank as he runs the Eighteen-Wheeler Marathon, charms his nieces and nephews with tales of courage, and enlists Dog-Pound Ralph in a scheme to banish Rambo.
56) Monkey Business
A convoy of circus trucks is passing through the ranch. The last truck in the column hits a bump and a large red box falls off and comes to rest in the pasture. Hank and Drover investigate the box and discover that it contains a circus monkey. Pete advises Hank not to open it, but Hank's curiosity gets the best of him. What follows is fun and adventure.
