'''Seymour Asses''', or Seymour for short, was {{Fry|Fry's}} {{cat|dog}} before he was [[cryo-tube|frozen]]. Fry adopted him in {{August}} [[1997]] when he was barely more than a puppy. Fry had been called to a prank address (Seymour Asses, or "See more asses") and was devouring the useless pizza, when a skinny young dog begged for a piece of it. Fry was eager to share his meal, and the dog adopted him as master and started to follow him around. He acquired the name of the prank address and lived at [[Panucci's Pizza]] from then on, acting as resident dog and {{cat|food and drink|food}} taster. On the fateful night of {{date|31 December}}, [[1999]], when Fry was frozen, Seymour didn't want to let him go on the delivery, but Fry told him to wait at Panucci's until he was back. Seymour started to look for Fry the following morning, and found him at [[Applied Cryogenics]]. He even managed to lead [[Yancy Fry Sr.|Fry's father]] and [[Mrs. Fry|mother]] there, but they failed to realize Fry was there and dragged Seymour out again. For the rest of his life, Seymour sat outside Panucci's Pizza waiting for the return of his master, as the world around him changed and, eventually, he died in front of the abandoned pizza shop. [[2012|Some time later]], his body was fast-fossilized, making it possible to {{cat|clone}} him. The outer rind was made of dolomite, a heat-resistant mineral that allowed him to survive a lava bath. When Fry learned that Seymour had lived out his life without him, he had the cloning process stopped, as he believed Seymour had forgotten him, never realizing that Seymour had been ready to spend eternity [[Media:Seymour.gif|waiting for his return]].

In ''[[Bender's Big Score]]'', it is revealed that {{Bender}} destroyed Panucci's Pizza, and the fire fast-fossilized Seymour into his present state. It is also revealed that while Seymour still lived to the ripe old age of 15 years outside Panucci's, he was actually attended to by a [[time-paradox duplicate|time paradox duplicate]] of Fry (aka [[Lars Fillmore]]) who lived in its upstairs storage room, and therefore was never actually alone.

===Trivia=== 
* Seymour's major appearances were in "[[Jurassic Bark]]" and "[[Game of Tones]]", as well as one in the [[Comic Listing|comic]] "[[Homeward Boned]]", but he has had cameos in other [[Episode Listing|episodes]]:
** He was seen in his fossilized state at Fry's funeral in "[[The Sting]]".
** He had minor appearances in ''Bender's Big Score'', when [[Lars Fillmore|Fry]] and Bender travel back to the [[21st century]].
** In "[[A Clockwork Origin]]", {{Hermes}} found a fossilized dog and threw it away, believing it's "another one of Fry's dogs".
** In "[[Simpsorama]]", he is seen waiting when {{s|Homer Simpson|Homer}}, Bender, Fry and {{Leela}} pass by. However, this scene happens in {{s|Springfield}}.
*Seymour is a reference to {{w|Hachikō}}, a dog who waited at a train {{cat|station}} every day for his owner. One day while at work, Hachikō's owner died, and Hachikō continued to wait at the train station. He came to the station every day appearing exactly when the train arrived every day for 9 years until he died. His death happened in [[1935]] and in [[Japan]] in the station there is a {{cat|statue}} dedicated to Hachikō. It was confirmed by Adam Bohn (founder of {{w|Artix Entertainment}}) that this episode is a Hachikō reference.
*Seymour was seen lying down and presumably dying at the end of "Jurassic Bark", although his fossilized remains are always animated as standing up. This is explained (possibly retconned) in ''Bender's Big Score''.
**Seymour is also seen in his fossilized state on a shelf at Planet Express in the [[season 5|film]].
*Seymour made a cameo appearance in the [http://www.falloutwiki.com/Fallout:_New_Vegas_add-ons add-on] for the video game ''{{w|Fallout: New Vegas}}'' entitled "[http://www.falloutwiki.com/Lonesome_Road_(add-on) Lonesome Road]". You can find a fossilized dog named Seymour if you have the [http://www.falloutwiki.com/Wild_Wasteland Wild Wasteland] [http://www.falloutwiki.com/Fallout:_New_Vegas_traits trait].
*The [[title caption]] for "[[Stench and Stenchibility]]" is "Not The Episode With The Dead Dog", presumably a reference to Seymour.
