CM Punk Pays Tribute to Late Dog Larry With New Tattoo

CM Punk is keeping the memory of his late dog Larry close, and a new video shows just how far he’s gone to honor him.

A video posted by Maverink Studio on Instagram revealed that CM Punk recently got another tattoo dedicated to Larry, offering a behind-the-scenes look at the entire process. From early sketches to the rough draft and finally the inking, the clip captured every step — and it’s clear this wasn’t just another piece of body art.

The finished tattoo sits right under Punk’s left pec and features a portrait of Larry with a heart in the background, making the meaning impossible to miss. The footage also showed Punk reacting to the final result, as he looked genuinely satisfied as the tribute came together. Punk also made sure to thank them, as he said, “He’s perfect. Thank you for the incredible portrait ❤️”

This latest tattoo builds on what Punk had already shared during a WWE vlog, where he opened up about how much Larry meant to him and why he continues to honor him through tattoos, after he got a tattoo this year.

"This is my second Larry tattoo. I obviously have a lot of silly tattoos, but I also have a lot of heartfelt and meaningful ones. That’s the beautiful thing about tattoos — they’re very subjective, just like art."

He also explained that one of his earlier tattoos was based on Larry’s actual paw print, something he had planned long before the loss.

"The Larry tattoo is his paw print. I always knew I was going to get it eventually, and it’s just a fun way to remember him."

Punk didn’t hold back when sharing the personal memories tied to Larry either, recalling the small, everyday moments that stuck with him, including the habit that inspired where he placed the tattoo.

"If I was lying down and he needed something, he would climb on top of me and kind of paw at me while I playfully ignored him. Then he’d stand on my chest and stare at me until I finally asked, ‘Do you want to go for a walk?’ Then he’d get all excited. His paw would land right there, and the other one would hit me in the face."

With this new tattoo now added, it’s clear Punk isn’t moving on from Larry — he’s choosing to carry that bond forward in a permanent way. The placement, the design, and the process all point to something deeply personal rather than just another addition to his collection.
