The Chow Chow, well known for their lion-like appearance and unique traits; they are a true symbol of loyalty and well known for their famed blue tongues. Whether you are a Chow Chow owner or Chow enthusiast, what better way to honour this majestic breed than with an iconic tattoo. Tattoos can be a great way to showcase the bond you share with your dog. In this guide we will showcase tattoos shared by our community members and give inspiration on the types of tattoo designs out there.
Classic Portrait
Starting with the basics, a classic portrait. A great way to capture your Chow Chow in true form, whether that be of there famous intense stare or their fluffy mane a classic portrait is a great way to start simple but also encapsulates your Chow Chow’s distinctive features. Work with a tattoo artist who specialises in realistic animal portraits to ensure that every detail of your Chow Chows unique attributes are captured.
Abstract Art
If classic portraits aren’t your style and you love a bit of colour maybe consider an abstract design. Abstract tattoos can include geometric shapes or splashes of colour to capture your Chow Chow without the full detail of a portrait. This bold style can make your tattoo stand out while still maintaining an impressive representation of your beloved Chow.
Paw Prints & Silhouettes
Sometimes, simple speaks volume. A simple paw print or silhouette can be a subtle yet powerful tattoo choice. A design like this could work well in smaller areas such as wrists or ankles, and can serve as a discreet reminder of your cherished dog. If you are looking for more of a personal touch a significant date or your dogs name can provide a unique element. If detail is key work with a tattoo artist who specialises in delicate designs or even fine line.
When deciding on your tattoo, think about what the Chow Chow breed means to you personally. Is it their loyalty, unique appearance or a specific memory that you want to capture. Discuss your ideas with your chosen tattoo artist and they will help you bring your vision to life. Remember tattoos are permanent, so take your time and ensure the design you have chosen is something you will be happy with for the rest of your life.
