Mr. Muggles is the dog that belongs to the Bennet family. He is a breeding Pomeranian who has been entered in dog shows. He refuses to have anything to do with breeds with "poo" in their names.

History

Genesis

Carla tells Sandra Bennet that Mr. Muggles is not breed-worthy. Mrs. Bennet backs up her dog's breed-worthiness by stating his accomplishments — Mr. Muggles has won five local all-breed rallies, and two regional all-breed rallies.

Nothing to Hide

It's a big day for Mr. Muggles, and Mrs. Bennet worries that Lyle will stress Mrs. Bennet and her dog out. Claire and Zach then help Mr. Muggles out to the car so his paws don't get soggy.

The Fix

While Claire and Zach search for files on Mr. Bennet's computer, Mr. Muggles is the only one home with them. Later, when Mrs. Bennet returns home with Mr. Muggles from the dog groomers, she discovers that they missed clipping one of his claws, which could scratch the floors.

Distractions

After escaping Primatech, Sylar goes to the Bennets' home, where he finds Mr. Muggles in Claire's bedroom. Hearing Sandra return home, he goes to meet her. He tells her that he found Mr. Muggles wandering loose in the neighborhood, so he brought the dog home and entered through the back door, which he found open. Mr. Muggles obsessively licks Sylar's shoes, distracting Sandra.

Run!

Claire returns home to find Mr. Muggles barking at a frantic Sandra, who is yelling and throwing things at him. Claire reminds her mother that Mr. Muggles is her beloved dog, but Sandra doesn't remember having a dog ... or a daughter.

Trivia

• According to the episode commentary on NBC.com, the dog who normally plays Mr. Muggles, Lestat, was unavailable for The Fix due to a scheduling conflict. His stand-in was a good deal smaller and colored differently, so he spent the entire episode painted and wearing a sweater to minimize the discrepancy.
• Much to the chagrin of many Heroes fans, it was Mr. Muggles's affinity for shoes that prevented Sandra Bennet from saying her husband's name. (Distractions)
