The Humane Society Fountain in the Haymarket District, donated by the National Humane Alliance in 1908 to mark the establishment of Lincoln's Humane Society in 1907, was originally built in the center of M Street between 8th and 9th streets with the aim to provide "refreshment for dogs, horse, and human." It features three lion-head spigots and four water basins at the base of the fountain. The fountain was relocated to its current location in the Haymarket District in 2006.
