Queen Elizabeth was very proud to have accidentally created a new dog breed through a "secret liaison" between two royal pets, Dame Prue Leith has revealed.
The dorgi hybrid occurred in the 1970s when one of the Queen's corgis, Tiny, had a private moment with a dachsund named Pipkin, who belonged to the monarch's sister Princess Margaret, and the two siblings were so enamoured with the pups the tryst produced that they began breeding the pooches.
