Sheriff Hayseed is a web animation created by Mike "Piemations" Pitts, who is also responsible for ''WebAnimation/ElementsOfCringe'', ''WebAnimation/FriendshipIsDoomsday'', the ''Meet The Amazing'' series and ''WebAnimation/SuctionCupMan''.
The animations take place in the Wild West town of Troughwater, a town inhabited by FunnyAnimals (particularly horses and other ungulates) and plagued by a wide variety of criminals of varying shapes, sizes, and methodologies. All that stands in the way between the town and total anarchy is the new sheriff, Todd Hayseed the fox (voiced by Eloidiel), and his deputy, Shawn Burrowitz the donkey (voiced by ShadyVox). While they're certainly not the most competent or smartest, they're all Troughwater's got.

!!Tropes for this show include
* ActingForTwo: In "Boomerang In A Gun Fight", ShadyVox voices both Shawn Burrowitz and Lloyd Herdwick.
* TheAllegedExpert: Todd got the job as Troughwater's sheriff because he said on his resume he helped guard the Whatchamacallum fortune, which Joy took as a sign he was competent. It turns out that Whatchamacallum is a knick-knack store in his hometown, and he was a cashier there. His experience in guarding a fortune was helping his boss hide his fortune from the IRS.
* BadassAdorable: Pretty much everyone, considering it's a Western with anthropomorphic animals instead of people.
* ButtMonkey: Huck from "Boomerang In A Gun Fight" is used as the punching bag of everyone, though it's completely accidental and [[ThePollyana he takes it surprisingly well.]]
* TheCastShowoff: Though it doesn't appear in the actual shorts, Shawn has quite the singing voice due to being voiced by ShadyVox, who himself is an accomplished musician.
* CatchPhrase: "Wha-cha!" is apparently Todd's, used whenever he uses his boomerang.
* CartoonPhysics: At one point when told to breathe due to being over-excited, Todd holds in his breath and pops like a balloon, only to then come out from the saloon again.

* DaChief: Mayor Joy fulfills this role for Todd and Shawn.
* DitzySecretary: Lloyd, Mayor Joy's secretary, doesn't seem to be the sharpest crayon in the box, and is quite cowardly and whingy to boot.
* DoesntLikeGuns: Todd refuses to use a gun because he might kill someone. Considering he's the ''sheriff'', this naturally causes problems, though he does well enough with his boomerang.
* DramaticUnmask: After beating the Scarecrow in "Boomerang In A Gun Fight", Todd and Shawn pull off his mask to reveal...Mayor Joy.
* DrillSergeantNasty: Lloyd plays this up during Todd and Shawn's TrainingMontage.

* FrothyMugsOfWater: Invoked after the pair's training in "Boomerang In A Gun Fight", where Todd, Shawn, and Lloyd go to the saloon to celebrate. Todd wonders if he's old enough to drink beer, but Shawn snatches his drink away and says that it's root beer...''probably.''
* GreatOffscreenWar: Mayor Joy apparently lost her leg in "The War", though nothing else is really stated about it.
* HairTriggerTemper: Mayor Joy is normally polite and understanding, but when she gets mad, she gets ''mad.''
* HandicappedBadass: Mayor Joy lost a leg in "the war" but is fully capable of masquerading as a violent criminal and giving Todd and Shawn a hell of a fight. Ol' Boomstick is also a blind mole rat who's nevertheless apparently a successful bank robber.
* HoldYourHippogriffs: After subduing the Scarecrow, Todd exclaims "Holy haystacks!"
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Mayor Joy isn't the nicest mayor but she does praise the guys when they're able to successfully subdue her when she's dressed as a criminal.

** IronicName: Mayor ''Joy'' is actually a very stern and serious mayor with a HairTriggerTemper.
* MomentKiller: At the end of "Boomerang In A Gun Fight", Shawn interrupts an otherwise heartwarming moment between Todd and Mayor Joy to announce that Lloyd passed out during the fight. The music even abruptly ends on a jarred piano note.
* PrecisionGuidedBoomerang: Todd's weapon of choice, and he's surprisingly effective with it.
* RealityEnsues: There's a lot of jokes made in "Boomerang In A Gun Fight" about how difficult it is to do things with hooves, since most of Troughwater's inhabitants are horses. Even their brooms have to have straps for them to put their hooves in. Shawn offers to use a gun for a pay raise and Joy tosses him one, which he's unable to hold.
* SecretTestOfCharacter: More "Secret Test of Competence", but Mayor Joy dresses up as a criminal called the Scarecrow at the end of "Boomerang In A Gun Fight" to test how Todd and Shawn's training went.
* SkilledButNaive: Todd is quite skilled with his boomerang and no slouch in a fight, but he doesn't know who the IRS is and willingly helped his old boss break the law without knowing it.
* StunnedSilence: Following Joy's office-wrecking temper tantrum in "Boomerang In A Gun Fight", Todd and Shawn are both frozen in their seats in fear and stiff as boards. Shawn even falls out of his. The ending also has one after the Scarecrow is unmasked to be Mayor Joy.

* TheCastShowoff: Though it doesn't appear in the actual shorts, Shawn has quite the singing voice due to being voiced by ShadyVox, who himself is an accomplished musician.
* CatchPhrase: "Wha-cha!" is apparently Todd's, used whenever he uses his boomerang.
* CartoonPhysics: At one point when told to breathe due to being over-excited, Todd holds in his breath and pops like a balloon, only to then come out from the saloon again.
* CripplingOverspecialization: Todd's conflict in "Strategically Stupid" is that he doesn't bother to strategize in a fight, preferring to use his boomerang for everything. This presents problems when the short's criminal antagonist [[CatchingTheBullet catches his boomerang.]]
* DaChief: Mayor Joy fulfills this role for Todd and Shawn.
* DitzySecretary: Lloyd, Mayor Joy's secretary, doesn't seem to be the sharpest crayon in the box, and is quite cowardly and whingy to boot.
* DoesntLikeGuns: Todd refuses to use a gun because he might kill someone. Considering he's the ''sheriff'', this naturally causes problems, though he does well enough with his boomerang.
* DramaticUnmask: After beating the Scarecrow in "Boomerang In A Gun Fight", Todd and Shawn pull off his mask to reveal...Mayor Joy.
* DrillSergeantNasty: Lloyd plays this up during Todd and Shawn's TrainingMontage.
* FakeAmerican: ShadyVox plays an American-accented character despite being from the UK.
* FluffyTheTerrible: One of the worst criminals wanted in Troughwater is a supposedly innocent-looking weasel named...Jerry.
* FrothyMugsOfWater: Invoked after the pair's training in "Boomerang In A Gun Fight", where Todd, Shawn, and Lloyd go to the saloon to celebrate. Todd wonders if he's old enough to drink beer, but Shawn snatches his drink away and says that it's root beer...''probably.''
* GreatOffscreenWar: Mayor Joy apparently lost her leg in "The War", though nothing else is really stated about it.
* HairTriggerTemper: Mayor Joy is normally polite and understanding, but when she gets mad, she gets ''mad.''
* HandicappedBadass: Mayor Joy lost a leg in "the war" but is fully capable of masquerading as a violent criminal and giving Todd and Shawn a hell of a fight. Ol' Boomstick is also a blind mole rat who's nevertheless apparently a successful bank robber.
* HoldYourHippogriffs: After subduing the Scarecrow, Todd exclaims "Holy haystacks!"
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Mayor Joy isn't the nicest mayor but she does praise the guys when they're able to successfully subdue her when she's dressed as a criminal.
* KidHero: There's a joke in "Boomerang In A Gun Fight" about Todd possibly not being of drinking age. He's also quite short.
* TheLancer: Shawn is this to Todd, being more worldly and smarter.
* MadBomber: Ol' Boomstick, one of Troughwater's criminals, who uses dynamite in his crimes.
* MeaningfulName: Shawn ''Burrowitz'', seeing as he's a donkey. There's also Lloyd ''Herdwick'', who's a sheep. This also crosses over with...
** IronicName: Mayor ''Joy'' is actually a very stern and serious mayor with a HairTriggerTemper.
* MomentKiller: At the end of "Boomerang In A Gun Fight", Shawn interrupts an otherwise heartwarming moment between Todd and Mayor Joy to announce that Lloyd passed out during the fight. The music even abruptly ends on a jarred piano note.
* PrecisionGuidedBoomerang: Todd's weapon of choice, and he's surprisingly effective with it.
* RealityEnsues: There's a lot of jokes made in "Boomerang In A Gun Fight" about how difficult it is to do things with hooves, since most of Troughwater's inhabitants are horses. Even their brooms have to have straps for them to put their hooves in. Shawn offers to use a gun for a pay raise and Joy tosses him one, which he's unable to hold.
* SecretTestOfCharacter: More "Secret Test of Competence", but Mayor Joy dresses up as a criminal called the Scarecrow at the end of "Boomerang In A Gun Fight" to test how Todd and Shawn's training went.
* SkilledButNaive: Todd is quite skilled with his boomerang and no slouch in a fight, but he doesn't know who the IRS is and willingly helped his old boss break the law without knowing it.
* StunnedSilence: Following Joy's office-wrecking temper tantrum in "Boomerang In A Gun Fight", Todd and Shawn are both frozen in their seats in fear and stiff as boards. Shawn even falls out of his. The ending also has one after the Scarecrow is unmasked to be Mayor Joy.
* TrainingMontage: "Boomerang In A Gun Fight" has Mayor Joy put Todd and Shawn through one of these to make them better at their job, and ends up testing them herself in disguise to see what they've learned.
