My girlfriend was a veterinary technician for a long time before her current job. Apparently it’s standard practice to tattoo shelter dogs once they’ve been spayed or neutered. Normally it’s done as something simple like a small line in green ink. I haven’t seen one like this before where they tattooed the “male” symbol with a slash going through it. Kinda funny but it sounds like a waste of time for the vet staff. I never asked why they bothered tattooing the males as well as the females since with the males it’s obviously easier to tell.

Old school working dogs were tattooed in the ear. There was a Gutenburg (moveable) type set of pliers where you put the desired ID number in the jaws of the pliers, inked the numbers and then pinched the ear. Not saying all or even most tattooing was done that way, but it seems quick, easy, and consistent compared to freehamding a goofy Ares symbol with a slash. Pinching the ear is also an early (but not the only) puppy selection test.

I think your explanation makes a lot of sense.

I would be dubious about the symbol were it not in a meme...

ETA: https://www.eickemeyer.co.uk/Pet-Car...Equipment.html Pretty sure this is frowned upon nowadays. For the last few years I have heard rumors that the Euro Schutzhund organizations were going to try to expel dogs if they were seen/photographed certain types of collars for compulsion training.
