Desperate Dogs?

We've never heard about this problem, but if it's true something needs to be done. Has anyone else noticed this? A concerned reader writes:
I am writing to report an abusive animal report that is occurring in the South Loop. There is a man that has as many as 9 dogs chained up outside in the large field directly south of the Roosevelt Collection. East of the river and west of Clark st. I have called the police over 4 times and nothing has happened. I frequently walk my own dog back there and several times heard the dogs moaning and barking. He has a little shack set up there and the dogs appear to be underfed and in poor condition. I thought that maybe bring awareness to the situation through your website would bring about some action.

Here is the map of the exact location. On those concrete foundations.
