Dog Tattoos
Dog Tattoo Designs
Dog tattoos were enjoyable to look at and search for, as many dog lovers not only expressed their appreciation for dogs, but did it through a variety of breeds; showing their personal preferences.
Man's best friend had a huge number of tattoo designs and styles as well, although most enjoyed inking the heads of their favorite animal more than anything else.
Among the more popular dog tattoo designs were, as I said, the head, but dogs lying down, ears perked up and tongues hanging out were also a part of much of the design of dog tattoos, and also several liked to dress up their dogs with their tattoos, much like people do in real life.
Some people also seem to have really liked more than one dog, and so have some tattooed together as a result.

Differences between dog and cat tattoos
I've done articles on cat tattoos before, and one of major differences is cats were done much more playfully and in ways that showed all those moods the always seem to be in, while dogs were done more in a friendly way, in the sense of looking like their best side was being portrayed.
Most of the cat tattoos I found also weren't done to show breeds so much, while dog tattoos seemed to show a different breed with each one.
Anyway, here are a number of dog tattoo designs and styles to enjoy.

Dog with tongue hanging out tattoo
I really like the tongue hanging out with this tattoo of a dog's head, but it's too bad the top of the image had so much brownish red, or bled too much. If you can ignore that, it's a pretty good tattoo otherwise.

What I like about this dog tattoo is he gives you the sense of being your best friend in reality. Those eyes look like he's committed for life, and I love that bone lying there before him.

Disastrous Dog Tattoo
This dog tattoo I included to show you the potential for a good tattoo, but one that failed miserably. The nose especially was poorly done, and the center of the face overall is a disaster.
It's too bad because the surrounding face was done very well, but you just can't get past the mess it became.
You get the feel it's someone about to turn into a werewolf than anything else.

But in case you didn't see it, what's interesting about it is the color of the eyes of the dogs, which are the same on two, with the third having the color of each of the other two dogs.
