Faded Love was plenty of fun with some excitement and danger thrown in. Hank is trying to interview the head rooster about a strange noise heard in the night when Drover reports something more important. It's Little Alfred's second birthday. He and Hank have fun while Sally May is looking for the
Hank and Drover are in the mood for love (which was not one of the old songs played in the background). They meet the beautiful beagle from the cover. Scamper is a confirmed flirt, but her owner is not interested in having Hank around.
Drover and Hank meet up with Rip and Snort. The Coyote brothers think fresh dog would make a dandy dinner. As usual, Hank does some fast talking to get out of trouble, but Drover manages to bring even more trouble with him. How will Hank keep them both from being torn limb from limb?
As for the romantic scene with Beulah the collie, she's right. Hank can't take a hint. Her duet with Hank shows she has a lovely voice. Pity he wasn't listening to her words.
Hank really saves the day in the end. I enjoyed High's opinion of one of Hank's skills.

Hank the Cowdog tickles my funnybone. His proclamations about what life is are so funny! I have to admit I felt a little sad about his love life, and I could see the train wreck in that love life coming, but I still laughed (albeit with a hint of guilt).
