    The tattoo.

    I wasn’t even sure where to post this. I landed here. The tattoo in memory of Montana and Dakota. Didn’t go with a paw print but rather the flowers I always see in the field where I always took them. Not sure if forget me knots grow wild but these look awfully similar. Been missing them so much lately. Choked up to finally see this on me, now they’re with me always. Just did their initials because I couldn’t get their names small enough. Hope it uploads properly.-a8452b42-e658-44b4-80b7-2b275892f3db-jpgand honestly I cannot get a good shot of it. It really is delicate and beautiful.

    Thanks guys. When the artist asked me of the meaning and I started to speak I got choked up. In a big way that I wasn’t prepared for. He was great about it.
    the placement has specialmeaning also- my left wrist . Montana was fabulous about being on my left. Our training really stuck and he was a perfectionist about that lol so good. The color of their initials is a deep
    purple a color I liked to put on Dakota a lot with collars. It looked stunning against her rich chocolate fur.
    I am so glad I finally did it.

    Nice, A fitting tribute indeed. I wanted to get the paw print with the angle wings and the names of my departed pups around it but quickly realized there's a lot of names and it'd probably look like a billboard.

    I love that and considered something similar until it hit me that I will always have dogs and I will always be broken when I lose them so I wasn’t gonna be able to do paw prints for everyone lol love it though ��

    What a beautiful tribute.

    The grief hits me in waves. As the weather warms up and I see more people out and about with their pups, I'm really missing her.
