My newest tattoo

I got my fourth tattoo today. Like all my others, this one has special meaning. Two years ago I rescued an 8 week old puppy. I instantly fell in love with her and named her Bella. My Baby Bella came at a time in my life when I needed her most. In many ways I think she saved me more than I saved her. The past two years with her have been a blessing and a struggle. She suffered from petit-mal seizures and was placed on medication. Her condition worsened before her second birthday in September. Sadly, we had to let her go and she was euthanized on 10/10/2011. The weekend before we made an ink print of her paw. Her paw is now tattooed over my heart.

Sooo sorry for your loss Samantha. Dogs make the best friends, therapist, soul mates and confidants. All this rapped up in a furry coat, a wet nose, a warm snuggle, and eyes that penetrate to the core. That is a GREAT way to keep your friend where she planted her roots. Very nice indeed!

Sorry for your loss. Our beloved pets will always have a special place in our hearts. They are like children that we have to take care of and love.

I'm very sorry to hear about your pooch, Sam.

The tattoo is a great way to remind you of her - a way of making her live on with you.

Any thoughts of finding someone else? When you're ready, hit me up. :)

Sam, This is a fine way to honor your friend's memory. When we think we are taking care of pets they are really taking care of us as well.

Thanks everyone. She was an awesome dog and she had a very profound impact on a lot of people and taught us all a lot more about ourselves. Despite her medical issues, she was a very happy-go-lucky pup with a lot of love for any person or animal she met. My dad said that if he could only use one word to describe what Bella was it would be soul.

Here is a picture I took of her a couple of months ago.

Tony- Thanks but I have my other 2 year old pup that I rescued when she was 6 mos old to keep me busy still. I've decided to keep her as an "only child" at least for a little while.
