Throughout the seven decades that the Queen has been on the throne for, Her Majesty has become known for her undying love of corgis. Thought to have owned over 30 of the sweet canine companions over the course of her reign, the Queen currently owns two of them.
In addition to her two corgis, a dorgi and a cocker spaniel also form part of the Queen's personal pack of pooches. Although the latter is a well-known breed, many are unaware of the existence of dorgis - which actually came about thanks to Her Majesty and the late Princess Margaret.
The dorgi, a dachshund-corgi mix, was created when Princess Margaret's beloved dachshund Pipkin got together with one of Her Majesty's much-loved corgis. Her Majesty was so delighted with the outcome, that she has bred many dorgis over the years, although she stopped a few years back.
