Dog Gone: Statue Meant to Protest 'Fearless Girl' Removed

NEW YORK - A sculpture meant to protest the "Fearless Girl" statue in Lower Manhattan has been removed.

***The New York Post says Upper West Side sculptor Alex Gardega placed his statue of a urinating dog next to the Fearless Girl over the weekend.***

A Boston-based financial company installed the "Fearless Girl" near Wall Street's "Charging Bull" in March.

According to the Post, Gardega says he's pro-feminism but calls the Fearless Girl "corporate nonsense."

The dog statue was removed early Tuesday.

The two other artists are pitiful snowflakes that obviously fear strong women.
