I liked both of those very much too! As a matter of fact, I just borrowed the entire Kimba series from my brother in law... Yep, I'll never grow up.

I really loved one by the same producer, called Space Ace, but have yet to find a copy. He would press his dog's nose, which would open and produce a pellet which Space Ace chewed on and was then able to throw rings out of his fingers, which he could also fly on.

What did you think of Kimba watching it as an adult? I got one of the Kimba DVDs -- and I have to say I was disappointed. I LOVED it when I was young, it was by far my favorite show.
