Sausie is a 5 yr old bully mix. She is SUPER affectionate with people and loves to snuggle and give kisses. She is fine with other pups as well but prefers all the love for herself! She is low energy and mostly just wants to be in your lap all the time. She sleeps in bed and is a wonderful cuddle buddy. She rides excellent in a car. She weighs around 55lbs and is fully vetted and spayed. She is fully housetrained and very healthy! She doesn't need much exercise, just a quick potty break. She is fostered in Houston TX and won't be transported until adopted. Her fee is $400.

Story
Goofy is an 15lb little cutie around 1 yr old. He's the happiest and most snuggly dog ever - just wants to be in your lap or getting belly rubs!! This guy is of unknnown origin and the breed mix is just a guess. He walks well on a leash and watches Netflix like a pro! He is calm and well behaved and gets along with other pooches as well as people. He doesnt roughhouse or enjoy dog parks and would prefer to be a solo pup althpugh he is never aggressive. We will not comment on his shedding nor promise he is hypoallergenic. He is fostered in Houston TX (please do not ask his location - it is Houston TX no matter what it might say elsewhere) so you cannot meet prior to adoption. His fee is $850. Email houstonstreetdogs@gmail.com for an application. He has not been and will not be cat/kid tested because his foster doesn't have either.
