Buford and the Galloping Ghost was a 30-minute Saturday morning animated series produced by Hanna-Barbera Productions which contained two 15-minute segments: The Buford Files and The Galloping Ghost.
The two shows originally aired as segments on Yogi's Space Race from September 9, 1978 to January 27, 1979 on NBC. Following the cancellation of Yogi's Space Race, both segments were repackaged together and given its own half-hour timeslot from February 3, 1979 to September 1, 1979.
The show has resurfaced in reruns on Cartoon Network and Boomerang.
The Buford Files
Summary
Taking place in Pendike County, Buford featured teens Cindy Mae and Woody doing what all red-blooded American teenagers did in the 1970s: solve mysteries! Assisting Cindy Mae and Woody was their bloodhound Buford, whose nose turned red when he found a clue. Buford was a very lazy dog, and that, coupled with the bumbling police work of Sheriff Dupres and Deputy Goofer, forced the intrepid teens to work even harder to crack cases.

The Galloping Ghost
Summary
The Galloping Ghost was Nugget Nose, the spirit of a small, feisty prospector, who, like Buford, had a keen sense of smell. Wendy summoned Nugget Nose whenever she and her friend Rita needed assistance on the Fuddy Duddy Ranch with a magical golden nugget she wore around her neck. Fuddy Duddy owned the ranch and provided perpetual, if unintentional conflict with the Double-N.
