Some hometown pride this morning for a Canandaigua dog — getting his paw prints in the Guinness Book of World Records!
Finley the golden retriever is being recognized for fitting six tennis balls in his mouth at one time!
The Molloy family of Canandaigua says it took 3 years and a lot of back and forth with Guinness over what kind of tennis balls count, and having the video proof to back it up.
They say the news could not have come at a better time.
"During a time of Coronavirus, it's definitely lifted a lot of peoples spirits which is nice, Erin Malloy said. "It's good news compared to the news a lot of us have been seeing lately, so I think timing could be considered everything right now and it's what we really all needed for this to be done and he finally has the record."
Finley's reach spreads across the globe. He has more than 36,000 followers on Instagram.
