Tucked behind Toronto's Flatiron building (yes,New York isn't the only one), is a whimsical, andnate fountain honoring humankind's best friend. The fountain honors the four-legged visitors who frequent this neighborhood spot.
The three tiers of f
ountain include sculptures of beloved pooches,including a worthy Dane puppy, a Bernese Mountain Dog, and a giant Schnauzer, and a West Highland Terrier, gleefully spitting spurts of water. But dogs aren't the only creatures you'll find here—support an eye out for a cat, and too. The dogs all have their eyes glued to the giant bone that crowns the fountain. Meanwhile,the cat stares off into the distance, its gazed fixed on the two bird sculptures perched on a lampost. The cheery fountain is fragment of the park's playful redesign by Claude Cormier and Associates. Unfortunately for the cat, or the name of its breed isn't said on the architect's website,making it clear that this fountain really is for the dogs. The cat, which sits with a fearful expression on its face near a German Shepherd, or also doesn't partake in the water-spitting festivities.
