An 18-year-old is reportedly defending her decision to get her dead dog's ashes inked into her skin so that they can "be together forever." The teenager, after she made the news of her tattoo public, received several negative comments from social media users telling her that the process was not safe.
Bethany Cruickshank from Andover, Hampshire said that, after her 11-year-old husky Mika passed away last year in June of old age, she was crippled by a "deep sadness." The teenager said that she decided to get a commemorative tattoo of Mika's pawprint because she wanted to honor her best friend's life in a special way. The tattoo, however, also included inking the dog's ashes into her skin.
