Why does my dog have a green spot on his belly? Is it a tattoo?

Question

Hello, I just noticed my dog has this green spot near his pelvic area. What could this be? Pet's info: Dog | Labrador Retriever | Male | neutered | 6 years and 1 month old | 70 lbs

Hello, This green ink looks like the kind often used in a tattoo. Tattoos are commonly given to pets when they are spayed or neutered, so if that no one attempts to re-do the procedure. I hope this helps. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
