I had 2 blue paw prints done on the top of the my foot! They are for my boys. It hurt like anything! I LOVE them and I love what they represent to me. I know this is probably going to sound cold to some, but I did not want to do a portrait of my pups on myself. I'll will always remember them in my heart and my memories and through pictures of them, but someday when they are gone... I do not want a reminder of them permanently inked on myself. I want to be able to fully open my heart and give my love 100% to other Yorkies that I will get. The joy of loving a pet makes up for the pain of losing one. I love the representation that I have of them with my paw prints. This symbolizes (to me) my love of animals and represents all the fur babies I have had and will have in my lifetime!
Not to mention, I will not love these 2 boys more than I will love my next yorkies and less than I loved my first yorkie. They are all loved by me equally, 100%.
