Hey all - I was at Marineland (in FL) the other day and was reminded of a short Benji movie I loved as a kid, which was "Benji Takes a Dive at Marineland." I dug out my VHS taped-off-of-TV copy the other day and watched it. Some of the characters are puppets, including an Afghan hound that is, well, a mer-dog...which I had totally forgotten about! She gets a crush on Benji and ends up whacking annoying people with her tail quite a bit, and it was just too cute not to share.

Here is a clip that has a song as well as some of the aforementioned tail-whacking: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jkQ-MP-lGyI

Found that the whole movie (about 25 min long) is online too if anyone is interested...it's for kids but it's pretty cute and very early 80's-tastic: http://www.imdb.com/video/hulu/vi793156633/
