A ranch-side birthday takes an unruly turn

Slim’s birthday begins with cinnamon rolls, but Hank is soon called to deal with Snips, a horse making trouble in Sally May’s yard. Their confrontation sends Hank to the vet and then into town, where his attempt to enjoy the city brings him into conflict with local dogs. The setup links a ranchyard dispute with a trip beyond familiar territory, keeping the action centered on Hank’s efforts to get back to the ranch. As Book 84 in the Hank the Cowdog series, it pairs animal mischief with a comic predicament.

Book overview

It's Slim's birthday, and the day is off to a great start when Miss Viola delivers a pan of fresh-made cinnamon rolls! However, a report comes in that a trash-talking, rule-breaking, daffodil-eating horse named Snips has invaded Sally May's yard, and Hank has to spring into action. When he appears on the scene, things go from bad to worse when Snips decides to hold his ground, resulting in a showdown that earns Hank a trip to the vet. Once in town, Hank decides to enjoy his trip to the big city and quickly winds up on the wrong side of some pretty tough local mutts. Will Hank ever make it back to his ranch?
