First, as admirable as your actions are, did you also report the situation? There are laws against animal neglect. If your Animal Control won't enforce them, contact your elected officials and make a complaint. You can also write a letter to your editors.

You can also make the situation known to local or regional rescue groups and ask for intervention.

As to the care of the animals, small quantities of easily digestible food to start and Lots and Lots of fresh water.

New bucket with ice in place! They have nice cold water and plenty of it!
They were so curious about the ice. They obviously never had ice in their water.
I had faith you would...bless you!!!

Default Update!

I just looked out my front door 15 minutes ago and guess who was in my driveway? The guy with the husky on a chain. All disheveled and bare foot! He was standing in my driveway with the dog! He figured out which house was mine. I am at the end of a culdesac so I thought he would never figure which house was mine. I wish I had my camera.

Just now he came back with the skinny dog on a chain in my driveway, wtf?
I got a decent pic of him! Wondering why he is doing this? Scary.

Here he is at the end of my driveway by my mailbox.

Walking away from my house with the skinny dog.

Walking down my street with the dog.

Did he return to his house WITH the dog? I'm wondering if he's looking to "lose" them.

Yep, the dogs are back in the yard. Maybe that was his way of saying, "I know where you live, leave my dogs alone?" Was very wierd. Those dogs NEVER leave that yard.

Maybe he was going to give the dog to you.

He sure did not have to bring the dog to start trouble.

Keep those photos and date them with time and if he keeps coming to your house that is stalking and harassment . Just note the date and time and if he does this for a week it is considered stalking and blondie please be careful and arm yourself if needed . You know what I mean . I dont trust anyone these days . sorry but it is true .

Excellent advice from phonelady. This guy was delivering a message to you, that is why he came twice, each time with one of the dogs. Be very careful, Blondie. He is very much on to you and is probably feeling harrassed and pished off.

Well, hate to fan flames again, but let me get this straight. The OP is posting pictures of this guy now, his dogs, his backyard, and trespassing by way of homemade contraptions.

I know it's all goodhearted, but she's doing this stuff, and now you guys are telling her to watch out for him stalking and harassing her. To be honest, if someone was sticking poles over my fence, I might want to arm myself lol.

I really believe, rescue a dog if your able, donate to rescues, take care of your own animals. But beyond that, mind your own business when it comes to peoples property. Now you may have a crazy guy on your hands, it's just not worth it to me, I guess it is to you.....

I can understand your post to a point, but what you're saying is why a lot of abuse goes on, because people look the other way. What if it was the kids in the back yard all day being neglected? There was recently an arrest in the news because they made their daughter pretty much live in the back yard. People have to stop looking the other way. Start caring about what goes on in your community. At least that's the way I feel.
