Bluey earned a Guinness World Record for longest-living dog and, in 2019, was honored with a mural in Rochester. The average life expectancy of Australian cattle dogs is 12 to 16 years, so Bluey was quite the outlier.

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.
