Found the spot where the dog bowl was installed. There is now a brass plate where the bowl used to be. Not sure if the bowl was removed for winter and will return in nicer weather.
[Jeff B, 04/12/2023]As of Feb. 20, 2023, the dog bowl was gone. Maybe it's out getting cleaned or something.

Not worth going out of the way for, but it's a nice bubbling fountain for those with dogs in the park.

It is as described. A real-sized dog bowl with a small gurgling water fountain in it.
