SIOUX FALLS, S.D. -- A St. Bernard in South Dakota has set a new, slobbery world record. Mochi, also known as Mo, holds the Guinness World Records title for having the longest tongue on a dog. According to Guinness World Records, Mochi's tongue measures in at 7.31 inches. Mochi's owner, Carla Rickert of Sioux Falls, says her dog is happy, but also has some breathing problems because of her long tongue. The 8-year-old Mochi broke the previous record held by a male Pekingese, whose tongue was 4.5 inches.
