Queen's witty response when dog trainer told her she had 'too many corgis'

Queen Elizabeth II was widely known for her lifelong love of dogs and devoted much of her time caring for dozens of Welsh corgis. The late monarch is said to have owned more than 30 of the breed, many of which were descendants from Susan, the corgi she received as an 18th birthday gift from her father, King George VI.

Her Majesty's beloved pooches were doted on at Buckingham Palace with their own food menu, tailormade gravy recipe and spacious royal beds. Despite many people believing the Queen had "too many dogs" - including her own husband Prince Philip - she refused to part with any of her pets.
