“A fire hydrant has H2O on the inside and K9P on the outside”

“A fire hydrant has H2O (water) on the inside and K9P (canine pee) on the outside” is a joke that has been printed in several joke books. “If you find H20 inside a fire hydrant, what do you find outside? K9P” was cited in print in 1989.
