I meant to post this on Friday but things got too busy. So a little late for the royal wedding, but still awfully cute photos of Corgis. The fav dog of Queen Elizabeth. The breed was introduced to the Royal Family by her father, King George VI, in 1933 when he bought a Corgi called Dookie from a local kennels, according to the royal website. The website also has this to say,

The animal proved popular with his daughters and was described as ‘unquestionably the character of the Princesses’ delightful canine family’ and ‘a born sentimentalist’. A second Corgi was acquired called Jane who had puppies, two of which, Crackers and Carol, were kept.
