TONGUE ID spells UNTIE DOG. It’s a weak password.

I guess it’s better than butt ID.

Doggie use WoofsApp eh.

I read that the skin on noses of dogs has a unique pattern like fingerprints. So this could work maybe.

Nose. Do nose I.D.

I hope it’s been fixed now, but I heard that when fingerprint ID first came on laptops, anybody’s fingerprint would log you into a computer. It didn’t have to be the fingerprint of the person whose fingerprint was first registered.

Aren’t dogs typically ID’d by their urine?

How come retinal scan security isn’t called “Eye D”?

Could be worse, could be the old ‘Tail Sniff ID’.

I suspect that all the dogs who stuck their noses way up there on my dog probably knew she had kidney disease before the vet told me after my beagle had her physical (blood, urine), vaccinations, etc). That would have been one when time I wish dogs could talk.

The phone becomes a "lap"top.

While technically feasible, the moisture would void your warranty.
