Throughout her 70-year reign, the Queen owned more than 30 corgis and was known for her love of the breed.
The nation has been in mourning after the sad passing of Queen Elizabeth II, Britain's longest-reigning monarch. Her Majesty died on Thursday, September 8 and since then royal fans have been paying their respects and sharing wonderful memories of the Queen.
In early 2021, she was gifted two new puppies, one dorgi and one corgi, by Prince Andrew while staying at Windsor during lockdown. But the Queen was left devastated when five-month-old Fergus died just a few weeks later, in the aftermath of Philip’s death. Andrew and his daughters Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie then gifted the Queen another corgi puppy to replace Fergus for her official 95th birthday. This little pup was named Sandy.
