Gracie really... really... really wants to swim with a dolphin. 
 
 The little dachshund was so excited when a dolphin surfaced on the Banana River, near Port Canaveral, Florida, that she decided to go in after it: 
 
 The video was initially posted on YouTube last year by Gracie's owner, Tina Calderin, but received a new round of attention after being reposted on the Kyoot Animals channel from "America’s Funniest Home Videos" earlier last week. 
 
 Calderin said the family had goats at home and Gracie often chases and herds them. 
 
 "I think she was trying to herd the dolphin like she does our goats," Calderin wrote. "I think she wanted to play." 
 
 Either that or Gracie was just confused. 
 
 "She thinks she's a dolphin," Calderin wrote. "They are the same color." ||||| "We've had dogs on the bridge, all sorts of animals: seals, turtles, you name it. We never had one that took off and took so long to get," Williams said. ||||| The little dachshund was so excited when a dolphin surfaced on the Banana River, near Port Canaveral, Florida, that she decided to go in after it:

 Calderin's biggest concern was that the dog would get accidentally bumped by a dolphin, but neither dolphin nor dog were harmed during the aquatic encounter

– A Chihuahua, the San Francisco Bay Bridge, and the California Highway Patrol: It all adds up to one of the more entertaining police chases in a while. As the Los Angeles Times reports, one officer in a car and another on a motorcycle managed to catch the runaway dog on the bridge Sunday morning. Police had to stop traffic, and the two officers finally teamed up to safely corral and capture the pooch. "We’ve had dogs on the bridge, all sorts of animals: seals, turtles, you name it," says one of them. "We never had one that took off and took so long to get." The dog has no ID tags, and police are still trying to find the owner. For now, cops have dubbed him "Ponch," after the CHiPs character. (This dachshund went on a dolphin chase.)
