Maybe these puppies will grow up to be K-9s.

A police deputy from the Fort Bend Sheriff’s Office in Texas made an unusual find while driving early Monday on Williams Way Boulevard in Richmond: two small puppies huddled on the side of the road.

“The puppies did not have collars and were alone,” according to a post on the department’s Facebook page.

Deputy D. Lytton then picked up the puppies and met up with his partner, Deputy M. Anciso, and both deputies decided to adopt the puppies on the spot, giving them “forever homes” in an instant, according to the post.

The dogs could be mixed breed, but appear to be Labrador-related, the Houston Chronicle reports.

A spokeswoman for the sheriff’s department told The Post that abandoned animals are rarely pure breeds and said the animal were most likely black lab mixes.

Officials from the Fort Bend County Animal Services told KTRK in October that there’s a “big problem” in the county regarding residents simply abandoning their pets. The agency takes in roughly 5,000 strays animals per year and has space for up to 80 dogs and some cats.

Barbara Voss, the community involvement coordinator at the agency, said abandoning animals is a misdemeanor punishable by a fine up to $500 per animal.

“There are resources other than dropping them on the side of a busy road,” Voss told KTRK.
