I need to know where I can buy Jim Henson's "Muppets" merchandise in
Dallas, Tx. or surrounding areas. Specifically a plush "Animal" doll.

I have found a source where you can buy an Animal plush doll online
and have it shipped to an address in the Dallas area (or, for that
matter, anywhere in the United States).  Would this be a sufficient
answer?

Yes, that would be sufficient. Please let me know the address so I can get started.

Actually, there are several online sources for plush "Animal" dolls. 
You can browse them by using the following searches on Google:

muppet "animal plush"
://www.google.com/search?q=muppet+%22animal+plush%22&num=30&hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&safe=active&filter=0

muppet "plush animal"
://www.google.com/search?num=30&hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&safe=active&q=muppet+%22plush+animal%22

muppets "animal plush"
://www.google.com/search?q=muppets+%22animal+plush%22&num=30&hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&safe=active&filter=0

(I haven't included the search for 'muppets "plush animal"'; after the
first result, the pages list a "plush animal" with a small "a".)

As a buyer, I would look to the Yahoo! store before the other search
results, because Yahoo! is a well-established name.  (Yahoo! Auctions
does not appear to have a plush Animal at the moment.)

A source with more options is eBay.  When I ran the following
searches, I pulled up several Animal plush dolls available to
customers in the United States.

I found these results by going to eBay's Advanced Search (
http://pages.ebay.com/search/items/search_adv.html ), clicking on
"Items available to ... United States", putting a check mark next to
"Title and description", and then entering these search terms.
