Louisiana Family’s Dog Claims World Record for Longest Tongue

A three-year-old dog in Metairie, Louisiana, is getting a lot of attention for record-breaking tongue.

Zoey is a Labrador/German Shepherd mix who Guinness World Records said Friday holds the record for the longest tongue on a living dog.

“Her tongue is a whopping 12.7 cm (5 in) long. That’s longer than a soda can!”

Despite her interesting feature, Zoey is like any other dog who loves to be outside, play fetch, chase squirrels, take rides in the car, and go swimming.

“Zoey’s record-breaking accomplishment comes nearly three months after Bisbee broke the record with a tongue measuring 9.49 cm (3.74 in).”
