The Orange County Sheriff’s Office posted the pictures on its Facebook page.
A passerby, only identified as Adam, saw the deputies tending to the animals and snapped some photos.
Adam sent the pictures to the Orange County Sheriff’s Office with a note saying, "The deputies stood by with the dogs until Animal Services arrived, and they even applied gauze to the injured dog's leg to stop the heavy bleeding. These pictures I took depict a loving nature from our deputies and will tug at any animal lover's heart strings. Thank you."
The dogs are now at Orange County Animal Services where they are comfortable and being cared for, deputies said.
