Orange County Animal Care rescuers said the stench inside was unbearable.
Workers in hazmat suits removed the dogs from the home so they could be checked out.
They said the animals were covered in feces, urine and fleas.
The couple was cited for misdemeanor animal cruelty, but more severe charges could be added.
