Dog Haus Biergarten Richardson's "absolute wurst" hot dogs feature eccentric flavor combos

Dog Haus elevates the traditional hot dog by using all-natural, vegetarian-fed, hormone- and antibiotic-free beef garnished with eccentric toppings and creative flavor combinations.

It also offers the Impossible Burger and Beyond Sausage on a plant-based menu tailored for vegans, vegetarians and “flexitarians,” or vegetarians who sometimes eat meat.

Since Dog Haus’ opening, Ryan has raised funds for nonprofits, such as Waterfall Academy and Richardson ISD. During the restaurant’s grand opening Ryan gave away free Haus Dogs with a minimum $1 donation to Heroes for Children, a local organization benefiting children with cancer. On its first anniversary Ryan raised another $1,100 for the organization. And as a gesture of gratitude, Ryan offers a 50 percent discount on food to all first responders.

As he forges his 2019 expansion with three more DFW locations, Ryan said he intends to always keep community service a part of his business plan.

“If you pull back the curtain, we are a franchise,” he said. “But it’s about your people and how you relate to the community. My little business may grow to between 1 and 20 restaurants, but every one of them will serve the community.”
