Dog (Bunny Picnic)

Template:Designer

The dog in The Tale of the Bunny Picnic was referred to simply as "Dog" (by The Farmer) or "The Dog" (by the bunnies) throughout the story. Though good-natured at heart, he is told to fetch bunnies for the Farmer's stew. He is not very intelligent and has a habit of confusing his body parts, referring to his brain as his elbow and his nose as his toe.

At the end of the story, the bunnies decide he needs a real name. Bebop names him De-Dop-De-Diddly-Dog Bop.

This puppet would appear in several future Henson projects, usually in group shots. It was used for Undercover Rover in Muppet Time and in minor roles for Kermit's Swamp Years, The Muppets at Walt Disney World, and "Secrets of the Muppets."
