The Queen’s canine dynasty shows that dogs are a ma’am’s, as well as a man’s, best friend.
Some 15 generations of Her Majesty’s corgis were all descended from Susan, the pup she was given on her 18th birthday.
The dog was hidden under blankets in the royal carriage on her honeymoon in 1947. But the Queen’s love of Pembroke Welsh corgis began even earlier.
