About Mango & Kiwi

Mango and Kiwi are two gentle souls who were found together as strays in a field in Houston, Texas. After being rescued, they entered a local shelter where they received the love and care they needed until Saving Pups of Texas was able to welcome them into rescue. While we may never know what these sweet boys experienced before they were found, one thing is certain, they have hearts full of love.

Mango and Kiwi are about three years old, and both shy and timid when first meeting new people. Kiwi tends to warm up more quickly, while Mango takes a little longer to build trust. But once they realize they are safe, their true personalities shine. They will gently approach, lean in for affection, and lick your hand as if they are thanking you for becoming their friend. These boys simply need what every dog deserves: patience, kindness, and a family willing to let them settle in at their own pace. They love to give kisses and will come up to you and rub against you for pets. They just need love and attention to help them know they are safe and loved.

Ideal Home

A calm home with love, consistency, and companionship would be ideal for these boys. They would do best with a family that understands that trust takes time. They are unsure about cats and children.

Ongoing Health

Both have been neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped. They also received ProHeart 12 (One Full Year of Heartworm Prevention). Mango underwent brachycephalic airway surgery to improve his breathing and successfully completed orthopedic surgery following an accident.

Training & Support

Mango and Kiwi are crate trained, potty trained, and walk nicely on a leash. They are well-mannered once they settle in and are adaptable to new environments with patience and routine.
