“Seven Dogs” revolves around an Interpol officer named Khalid Al-Azzazi who apprehends Ghali Abu Dawood, a high-ranking member of a clandestine global crime syndicate known as 7 Dogs.

When, a year later, the organization resurfaces and begins trafficking Pink Lady across the Middle East, Khalid must reluctantly join forces with Ghali, the only person with intimate knowledge of the syndicate’s operations. “Their uneasy alliance propels them on a high-stakes mission across multiple global cities as they strive to dismantle the organization and prevent the drug from flooding Arab streets,” according to the provided synopsis.

“Seven Dogs” will be the first movie to be filmed at the new Big Time Al-Hosn Studios in Riyadh, which will serve as a stand in for multiple international cities including Mumbai and Shanghai.

A late 2025 theatrical release is planned for the film, which is produced by Sela, the company owned by Saudi’s Public Investment Fund that is becoming increasingly active in sports and entertainment at large.

The Favicon for the website, dogsandpurses(dot)com, features an all-black background with a minimalist line drawing of a puppy's head poking out of a stylish purse. The puppy's head is drawn with a cute and friendly expression, making it the focal point of the design. The purse, which the puppy is emerging from, is depicted with clean, elegant lines. The contrast between the black background and the white line drawing creates a striking and modern look for the Favicon.
