Doggie Buttwash AKA Central Park Drinking Fountain
Story here, at Gothamist. I would have been far less mild-mannered than the video crewperson who confronted the woman using the drinking fountain as a doggie bidet, perhaps shouting, "Hey, everybody, line up to take a drink where this woman is power-washing her dog's anus!" 
(As I write in "Good Manners for Nice People Who Sometimes Say F*ck," I'm for bringing back shame. All for it.)

Remember way back when there were separate fountains for white people and black people? Supposedly, white people did all kinds of nasty things to the black fountains, and it probably wasn't limited to washing their dogs' anuses.

And they want to ban the sale of bottled water in the city? Welcome to New York City. Drink up.

"Tee-hee-hee! Good thing the world revolves around me, and I can just do whatever I want! I can be an asshole and wash my dogs asshole in a public drinking fountain, and not give a shit about anyone else, as I'm cleaning shit from my doggie! Tee-hee!"
She makes me sick.

Thanks for confirming my suspicions about public water fountains.

NEVER drink at public water fountains!
However, I do kinda wish I had a hose - to use on the human!
