  1. So glad to hear this. Love Mutt’s. Can’t wait for the movie.

  2. I’m glad to hear anytime Patrick wins an award! His work is always excellent and unique. At this point in time, we’d have to do some serious research to try to uncover which awards he hasn’t won!

  3. I love “Mutts,” Patrick’s drawings, other artwork, and books and now I can’t wait for the movie.
