The Queen’s beloved corgis seem to be in good hands with the Duchess of York.
Sarah Ferguson has shared the first photos of Queen Elizabeth II’s famous dogs since her former mother-in-law’s funeral in September.
Passionate about the Corgi breed her entire life, the Queen has owned dozens of dogs. She was often photographed with one or more of her corgis sitting at her feet or walking behind her. At the time of her death, she owned four dogs, a source previously told CNN: two Pembroke Welshi Corgis named Sandy and Muick, a “Dorgi” (a dachshund-Corgi hybrid) named Candy, and a cocker spaniel named Lissy.
On Saturday, Ferguson posted photos to her verified Instagram account of what appear to be corgis Sandy and Muick.
“The gifts that keep on giving,” she wrote.
A working breed originally intended for herding cattle, Corgis are known for their distinctive short legs and fluffy coats.
After the Queen’s death, a source told CNN that the corgis would be living with Ferguson and her ex-husband Prince Andrew. The couple divorced in 1996 but continue to live at the Royal Lodge on the Windsor estate.
Even after the divorce, Ferguson maintained a strong friendship with the Queen and the two often walked their dogs together, according to the source.
It’s not clear who is taking care of the Queen’s other two dogs, Candy and Lissy.
