content

Quickdraw is a humanoid stallion who wants to keep order in the Wild West. Most of the time, however, his little companion, the Mexican donkey Baba Looey , has to bail him out. Quickdraw often disguises himself as the masked avenger El Kabong , who incapacitates the villains with his guitar. Another character in the series is Snuffles , a dog who gets ecstatic from dog biscuits and only then does his job. The mountain lion Snagglepuss , who plays so many pranks on the two heroes, later got his own series in the USA as part of the Yogi Bear Show .
