Perhaps this peeing dog or Het Zinneke is the most remarkable stop of this walk. This work by Tom Frantzen has been "doing his thing" against a Brussels pole since 1998. The statue is related to Manneken Pis & even Jeanneke Pis. The name Zinneke is based on the river Senne and the nickname for the people of Brussels (or mongrel dog), Zinneke.

The Zinneke, sometimes incorrectly called Zinneke Pis, is a statue by Tom Frantzen in Brussels that was erected in 1998. The work depicts a urinating dog and is thus thematically related to Manneken Pis (a boy peeing) and Jeanneke Piss (a peeing girl). The statue is located on the corner of Kartuizersstraat and Oude Graanmarkt.
The name Zinneke comes from the Senne and the nickname for Brussels residents (or mongrel dog), Zinneke. It also refers to "Feeling like".

In August 2015, Zinneke was hit by a car and restored by the artist.
