Books in Hank The Cowdog series

It’s early springtime on the ranch, and Hank is going through the usual motions of making sure that a warm spring arrives safely: singing songs about it, barking faithfully each morning, and helping the cowboys with their work around the ranch. However, in the midst of a particularly hard day’s nap, he receives a report that his little birdy friend, Madame Moonshine, is in danger of being eaten by Pete the Barncat! Naturally, Hank springs into action to save her, but a misstep brings the wrath of Sally May down on his head, and Hank must flee the scene of the rescue and travel west on the Oregon Trail with Little Alfred. Later, when a freak storm causes the creek to rise, stranding Little Alfred far from the house, Hank must rely on his instincts and clever wits—and perhaps a little help from Madame Mooshine—to keep them both safe and get Alfred back to his mother!

Hank runs into a dispute with a giant bullfrog over the Emerald Pond. Then, there's a battle with a...Monster. It's too scary to tell what kind of monster it is! However, things get really tough when Hank is entrusted with the job of guarding Little Alfred's soon-to-be prize winning chicks. They're cute, but they also look delicious! Will Hank be able to put aside his doggie instincts or will his appetite finally get the best of him?

In this exciting case, Hank falls victim to a series of sneaky schemes: first, a Turkey Debacle endangers his relationship with Sally May, then, a case of poisoning puts him at death's doornail, and finally, a disastrous ride to town almost finishes him off. As each terrible event takes its toll on his reputation - not to mention his dignity - Hank begins to notice a pattern. Could it be that an evil mastermind is behind these plots? As the pieces of the puzzle fall into place, Hank narrows down the pool of suspects and finds himself drawn into a deep, dark conspiracy orchestrated by his mortal enemy...or is it mortal enemies?

Hank has faced every hardship imaginable-natural disaster, disease, and all kinds of monsters. But, this time, he finds himself up against a creature he's never seen before-and boy is it scary!

Hank is on the case immediately, but before he can put an end to the armored creature's antics, he gets blamed for the crime. Can Hank dig his way out of this mess, or has he burrowed too deep?
