Volunteers from Save Our Street Dogs (SOSD) were trying to catch some female dogs for sterilisation last week, when they found 2 adorable puppies in the area as well.
On closer inspection however, the volunteers found that the puppies were infested with ticks and fleas of all shapes and sizes.

They have now been been deticked, and all cleaned up. Amazingly they did not develop tick fever and were also heartworm negative.
The puppies are two months old and have been named Linus (black) and Lucy (brown).
