Bluey (June 7, 1910 - November 14, 1939) is the name of the Australian cattle dog formerly owned by Les Hall of Rochester, Victoria, Australia, which holds the Guinness world record for the dog with the longest recorded lifespan in history, having achieved the age of twenty-nine years, five months and seven days. Bluey's diet included regular meals of kangaroo and emu.
Close on Bluey's heels was Bramble, from Somerset, who lived for 27 years on a vegetarian diet.[1]
