Has the Queen got any corgis left?

Answered by Frank Schwing

As of April 2018, the Queen’s final corgi, Willow, passed away. It was indeed reported that she made the decision to stop breeding corgis to ensure that none would be left behind after her passing. While Willow was her last purebred corgi, the Queen still has two dorgis, Vulcan and Candy, who survived Willow. However, it is important to note that information regarding the current status of the Queen’s pets may have changed since the time of my initial response.

The decision to stop breeding corgis was a personal one for the Queen. Corgis have been a beloved part of her life for many years, and she has owned more than 30 of them during her reign. They have become synonymous with her image, often seen by her side during official events and in informal photographs. Their presence has brought her much joy and companionship over the years.

The Queen’s love for corgis is well-known and extends beyond her role as a monarch. She has been actively involved in breeding and caring for them, even becoming a member of the Kennel Club. Her dedication to the breed has helped preserve and promote the Pembroke Welsh Corgi, which has seen a surge in popularity due to her influence.

However, as the Queen has aged, she has expressed concern about the responsibility of caring for her beloved pets. The decision to stop breeding corgis was likely a practical one, as she did not want to leave behind any dogs without a proper home or caretaker. This decision also aligns with her overall commitment to responsible pet ownership.

It is understandable that the Queen’s decision to cease breeding corgis may have saddened some, as these dogs have become iconic symbols of her reign. However, it is important to respect her personal choices and decisions regarding her pets. The Queen’s love for animals is evident, and she continues to have a deep bond with her remaining dorgis, Vulcan and Candy.
