Queen Elizabeth II: A life with corgis
In its tribute to the queen and her love of dogs, the AKC detailed how the royal family got its first Pembroke Welsh corgi. A breeder brought a litter of puppies to the then-Duke of York in 1933 and they choose a dog, which was dubbed Dookie, according to the AKC. Then a second Pembroke Welsh corgi named Jane was given by the breeder Thelma Gray a few years later.
When that dog died, another Pembroke Welsh corgi was given to then-Princess Elizabeth, who was then 18, as a birthday gift. That dog, which would be named Susan, became the common ancestor for all of the Queen's subsequent dogs,"an incredible genetic legacy," the AKC wrote. The death of her dog, Willow, in 2018, was the last tie to Susan, which apparently was among the 14th generation of Susan’s descendants, the AKC wrote.
After 2012, the Queen reportedly said she didn't want to breed any more of the dogs because she “didn’t want to leave any young dog behind.”
