25 of the best dog tattoos on the interwebs

Your dog loves you and what better way to honour Fido’s unconditional love than with a very permanent declaration of love returned.

Not such a bad idea, is it? Better than inking “I love Byron” only to find out Byron is a douche and has been dating your sister for three months. Amirite – amirite?

Anywho… I digress. If you so happen to be thinking of inking you’ve come to the right place. Please see below for our collection of the very best minimalist and modern #dogink you’ll find on the interwebs.

Пост о любви к домашним питомцам 🐕🐈 Моя семья с детства культивировала во мне любовь к животным,особенно к собакам,папа занимается разведением алабаев,эти собаки для меня эталон, любовь к хозяевам и отличные сторожевые качества все это они идеально в себе совмещают♥️ Алена,хозяйка этой татуировки,владелица джек рассел терьера и котика,и эти чудо существа живут душа в душу вместе ♥️ А у Вас есть домашние животные? если да то какие?) Сейчас,живя в квартире и находясь постоянно на работе,просто не могу позволить себе зависти любимое существо,а так хочется 😭 . . #hate__kate #tattooflowers #cattattoo #dog #dogtattoo #minimalistic #minimalism #minitattoo
