Man Decides To Tattoo His Dog

A Tattoo artist in Brooklyn is in some hot water after he decided that it would be a great idea to ink his dog.

I am all for tattoos but this is really, really ridiculous.

Mistah Metro, the tattoo artist, posted the photo on instagram with this caption

One of the many reasons my dog is cooler than your[s]! She had her spleen removed today and the vet let me tattoo her while she was under.”

The ink in question features the pooch with a heart with an arrow cutting through it along the right shoulder, along with the names ‘Alex’ and ‘Mel.’ The photo has been removed due to the back lash.

The ASPCA chimed in on the matter:

The ASPCA condones the use of tattooing for only identification purposes following spay or neuter surgery....Tattooing an animal for the vain sake of joy and entertainment of the owner -- without any regard for the well-being of the animal -- is not at all comparable to the incident in question and is not something the ASPCA supports.
