Story
👽🔎🐾 Meet Mulder, the ultimate 5-pound sidekick who pairs a massive heart with a fun, quirky personality and world-class lap-dog credentials! This athletic little Yorkie/papillon mix perfectly balances a love for cozy snuggles with a spirit ready for adventure. Extremely friendly, gentle, and deeply affectionate, his absolute favorite spot in the world is nestled right in your lap. He is also a fantastic co-pilot who loves car rides—especially if he can sit high enough to take in the views out the window. Don't let his tiny 5-pound frame fool you, either; he has impressive hops and bounces onto the sofa with total ease. As his foster mom puts it, "He’s funny—I don’t know any other way to say it."
In addition to his charming personality, Mulder is a dream household companion with fantastic manners. He is crate-trained, kennels cheerfully on command, and happily eats all of his meals in his crate. Smart and highly treat-motivated, he knows his name, learns routines quickly, and is an absolute gentleman when it's time to put on his belly band, standing politely without any fuss.
Mulder gets along wonderfully with other dogs—he stays close to his foster dog sister, Ellie—and doesn't pay the slightest bit of attention to cats, making him a seamless fit for a multi-pet home. He has recently developed a tiny, protective bark to let you know when unfamiliar guests are around, but he warms up quickly for pets once introduced. Portable, well-behaved, and ridiculously easy to take anywhere, Mulder is looking for a forever home ready for a loyal, sweet shadow who brings continuous laughter and love.
