Florida deputy finds adorable puppy, names her Dorian

Posted

The Orange County (Florida) Sheriff’s Office made a new friend this week while Hurricane Dorian threatened the state.

The agency tweeted a photo of a deputy, who was all smiles, holding an adorable puppy that he saved.

The sheriff’s office said deputies responded to a suspicious vehicle that was unoccupied and partially flooded after crashing into a ditch.

“Deputy Tolliver checked it out and found this pup & named her Dorian,” said the tweet.

The sheriff’s office said the cute pup will be turned over to the Orange County Animal Services.
