I'm just amazed these services have face tagging for dogs, and that you consider it so obvious that you feel like complaining about it.

I uploaded a 4D obstetric ultrasound to get rid of the CD. Photos.app tagged it as my child. That blew my mind.

If it's broken, then it's broken. It doesn't matter how futuristic and awesome it is.

Yep, in this case it sounds like “awesome futuristic idea poorly implemented” is worse than not having the feature.

Adding a simple toggle to disable it (or even better, a blacklist of tags to never auto-add) would be the best compromise.

On the web site, go to "explore" and pick the face of either dog, it should offer a little button that says "Same or different?" that will give you an opportunity to train it.

They can train your dog?!

You can manually go and say "this is my new dog" to improve the tagging.
