Chris Mendiola wouldn’t have thought he would get fame this way. He must have thought he was showing solidarity with his dog, Bear, but did he actually know what he was getting tattooed on his arm? Poor Chris mentioned in his Facebook post, writing about Bear: “For those of you who know Bear know that he has a tattoo given to him from previous owners. It sickens me to know that people tattoo their pets. So tonight I got his tattoo.”
He actually went to a tattoo artist and got a neuter tattoo made on his hand. No, we’re not joking.
The guy defended his action and said that he knew what he was doing. “I knew I was going to get a lot of backlash from it. I did. I got some from my coworkers. I got some from people I thought were my close friends,” Chris told Gizmodo, an online web portal.
Screengrab of Chris’ Facebook post was uploaded on Reddit by one of his old classmates and the rest as they say is history.

The reactions Chris’ decision got on Reddit were pretty LOL-worthy:
And of course Twitter picked it up:

Was he ever going to realise?! “So you want this thing that looks like a male symbol with a big line through it?”
“Yup.”— Daniel (@holed001) September 25, 2017
Am I missing something? Why do you need to tattoo a male dog to say it’s neutered? His balls are literally missing.
