Living a Vegan lifestyle generally demands a love of animals. It's no shock then to learn that Pete Dunne fostered a close friendship with his dog Jack over the years, and his Twitter posts often detailed how fond Dunne was of his canine buddy.

Sadly, Jack passed away on 15 May of this year, but Pete was keen to mark his life with a little ink-based tribute. Proudly posting a pic of his new tattoo on Twitter and Instagram, the WWE star unveiled a paw print piece emblazoned with Jack's name, securing the dog's memory as part of Dunne's story.

Sympathetic messages aplenty were sent Pete's way when Jack died, but it's clear he wasn't looking for attention by getting the new ink. Instead, Dunne simply wanted to commemorate an animal that had meant the world to him for many years. Jack would be proud!
