Tattoo artist sparks outrage after he inks tat on his seated dog. A Brooklyn tattoo artist bragged about inking his dog with a heart and his wife’s name while the poor pup was drugged after surgery - angering animal lovers.
Tattoo master “Mistah Metro” declared, “My dog is cooler than yours!” in an Instagram post that revealed a photo of what appeared to be his zonked-out pooch sporting the romantic tattoo, reports The New York Post.
“She had her spleen removed yesterday, and the vet let me tattoo her while she was under,” he said.
The tattoo shows the image of a red heart impaled with an arrow, Cupid-style, with the first name of the inker, Alex, and his wife, Mel, said a friend of the artist.

It was created in a shaven area on the shoulder of the pit-bull mix, whose name is Zion.
Soon after the pic went viral, dog lovers frothed at the mouth.
“That is disgusting. how could you do that to a poor dog?” Twitter user @JordanBurmeis raged.
User @arodomus added: “Unfortunate the dog can’t talk. He’d have a few choice words!”
Others fired off slams such as “You make me absolutely sick” and “I hope you rot in jail!”
Chris Torres - the owner of the Red Legged Devil tattoo shop in Brooklyn, where Mistah Metro works - said he had nothing to do with the tasteless tat.
“It wasn’t done at my shop. I’m an animal lover,” said Torres, who has appeared on the TLC reality show NY Ink.
