Sean Wells, and his mom "Nana" brought their 65 lb English Bulldog Mortimer to Next To Nature Pet store in the West Seattle Junction for Mother's Day where we caught up with them. Mortimer is a year and a half old and he's a handful, or he would be if you had gigantic hands. "We haven't found anything he isn't able to chew through," said Sean, "He eats pottery." His real name is "Mortimer Mr.Toad Wells" but given his tendency to chew through whatever he sees he's been rechristened "Mortimorsaurus".

Despite his fearsome mastication he's actually quite playful. Nana said, "He likes to lay on his back and play 'Paddy-Cake." Mortimer was a surprise birthday gift for Sean and he comes from Broadway Bulldogs in Everett.
