Dog with longest tongue awarded Guinness World Record (VIDEO)

SOUTH DAKOTA, Oct 5 — A dog named Mo from the US has been declared the world record holder as having the longest tongue on a dog.

Measuring a whopping 18.58cm, the 8-year-old from South Dakota has smashed the previous record held by a Pekingese whose tongue measured 11.43cm, Reuters reported.

“Mochi is a rescued St. Bernard and we’ve had her for about six and a half years and her tongue measures from snout to tip, 7.3 inches,” owner Carla Rickert says as she feeds Mochi peanut butter, showing off her impressively long tongue.
