Help us find our family!!

[UPDATE: THESE SWEET BABIES WERE CLAIMED WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND ARE NOW HOME WITH THEIR FAMILY!]

I don't know how many people in the Birmingham metro area read this blog, but I figure it never hurts.  If we are "friends" on Facebook, then you have probably already seen my posts from last night about the 2 labs we rescued.  We are desperately trying to reunite them with their family!
Help us find our family!

The chocolate male

The yellow female

Quick run-down...we were driving southbound on I-459, approaching the I-65 junction, and all of a sudden see these 2 dogs running for their lives along the right shoulder.  After some coaxing and a very stressful 10 minutes (and the help of another awesome guy that stopped to assist us), Matt was able to get a hold of the dogs and get them in our car.  Obviously they were scared to death, but so happy once they realized we were trying to help.  It is seriously a miracle they were not hit.  If you live here, you know how crazy 459 is at rush hour.  I was about to have a panic attack.
Anyways, we got them home and settled in for the night.  They are healthy, trained, and have obviously been well taken care of, so we are almost certain they just escaped...possibly were spooked by the tornadoes and bad storms the other night.  Unfortunately they are not microchipped so we are just trying to spread the word and find their family.  If you are reading this and you have ANY info at all about these 2 sweet babies, please let me know!  Our good friends at GBHS are also working hard to reunite them (and other lost animals that went missing after the storms).
