The Queen's beloved Corgi and one of her favourite ponies staged a touching farewell to their owners in a final, loyal farewell.

It was a moving scene as the lone pony stood among hundreds of bouquets of flowers in mourning for the Queen, cared for by Terry Pendry, the Queen's trusted horseman and administrator of Windsor Castle.
Dressed in a bowler hat, black jacket and horse boots, Pendry bowed his head as the Queen passed by.
Behind Pendry and Emma were horsemen from the Royal Stables in Windsor, wearing black armbands as a sign of mourning.

Pendry once described Emma as "an excellent servant of Her Majesty" and one of her favourite horses.

Corgis bred for herding livestock long before Queen Elizabeth II made them famous

By Sophie Johnson
Posted

While corgis are synonymous with the late Queen Elizabeth II, it might be a surprise to know the tiny breed is still used as a working dog in Australia.

The Queen had 30 corgis as pets over her lifetime, giving the breed its international recognition.

But the dog has been used for centuries to herd livestock.

Jean Milnes herds south of Adelaide with her female corgi, Tirion.

"[Corgis] have been herding since the Middle Ages at least, there is documentary evidence of them herding back in about 800AD," she said.

"I just got into it because I thought this would be fun to do to see if she could remember what her ancestors used to do."

Exercising instincts

There are few corgi herders in Australia now, but Ms Milne is hoping the popularity will boom after the death of the Queen, returning the breed to its farming roots.

"I still have the conversation with people who think corgis are wonderful, associate them with being the Queen's dog, and don't realise that they actually have a job to do," Ms Milnes said.

"There is ... going to be an influx of people wanting corgis for the next year or so, and it would be nice if they did something more than just go to the dog park."

Her corgi trains for herding competitions.

"We should be doing things that … dogs enjoy as well," she said.

"They need to be given the opportunity to achieve things.

"I think it is very important in any breed to maintain what they were intended to do."

Big brain, little legs

National Welsh Corgi Council secretary Sadie Podger said the dogs were very intelligent, which was needed when herding animals.

"Years ago … the farmers found that these dogs are actually quite smart and adapt to their conditions that they're in and found that they were the better of all the cattle type dogs that they had," she said.

Ms Podger said corgis were known as herd heelers because they could nip the rear legs of livestock to guide and direct the animal.

"When they herd they can roll from one side … of the cattle to the other side with that, and then sort of directing the cattle to where they want it, because cattle can be quite stubborn."

"They're low to the ground so they can drop their head a little bit, and basically the hoof goes over the top of their head where a taller dog could get hit in the head."

Became known the sad details of the state of Elizabeth II
Became known the sad details of the state of Elizabeth II
Queen Elizabeth II ’ s love for dogs is known all over the world.
For many years she has never broken up with her pets.
Her Royal Highness has always taken care of them herself.
Including she went out with them for a walk, writes Express newspaper.
However, the condition of the monarch has deteriorated so much that she has long been forced to abandon her favorite habit.
As it became known, with corgi and dorgs of the Queen of England since October last year, her assistants have been walking.
At the same time, Elizabeth II was admitted to the hospital.
But between walks, the pets of the august person are still next to her.
In Windsor Palace more than once noted the special connection of the Queen with her dogs.
They help Elizabeth in times of crisis and stress.
And after the death of the husband of the monarch Prince Philip pets and did become her main source of comfort.
Over the course of her life, the Queen has owned more than 30 Corgi dogs.
It is worth noting that in recent years the condition of Elizabeth II is increasingly alarming to her subjects and fans from around the world.
The fact is that it became very difficult for her to move.
The Queen herself said this during a recent reception.
The extent to which Elizabeth ’ s health deteriorated can be judged by her sudden decision to skip the Commonwealth Day service on March 14.
Previously, it was difficult to imagine that the Queen of Great Britain could refuse to attend such an important event.
Duty and service to the kingdom always came first for Elizabeth II.
However, she will not be able to sustain the service.
Therefore, instead of her before the people will appear Crown Prince Charles and his son, Prince William, with his wife Kate Middleton.

Queen Elizabeth II owned more than 30 corgis during her lifetime, with the first one given to her in 1933.

As Prince William surprised mourners waiting outside Westminster Hall to pay their respects to Queen Elizabeth II on Saturday, one had a pressing question on her mind: How are the late Queen’s beloved corgis faring?

“I saw them the other day,” the recently anointed Prince of Wales, 40, said in response.

“They’re being looked after fine. They’re two very friendly corgis. They’ve got a good home, they’re being looked after very well.”

The woman looked rather relieved to hear this, offering her condolences to William before he continued down the line.

It’s widely known that Queen Elizabeth harbored a lifelong adoration for the dog breed.

When she died on Sept. 8 at the age of 96, she left two of them behind: Muick and Sandy, along with a cocker spaniel named Lissy. Another one of her much-loved pups, an elderly dachshund-corgi mix named Candy, reportedly passed away just months before the Queen‘s death.

As Prince William alluded, Muick and Sandy have already safely moved in with Prince Andrew and his ex-wife Sarah Ferguson – with whom he still cohabitates – at their shared residence in Windsor. Meanwhile, Lissy is reportedly staying with her trainer, per E!.

As previously reported, it was back in 1933 when Queen Elizabeth II received her first corgi, Dookie. The pooch was gifted to the then-7-year-old by her father, George VI.

Then, on the Queen’s 18th birthday in 1944, her parents gave her another corgi-pup, this one named Susan.

It’s been reported that, of the more than 30 corgis Queen Elizabeth was said to have owned over her lifetime, many were Susan’s descendants. The lineage sadly ended in 2015, however, when her last living progeny, Willow, died at the age of 15.

The Duke and Duchess of York brought Muick – along with another pooch named Fergus who tragically succumbed to a congenital heart defect very shortly thereafter – into the Queen’s life in March of 2021 to cheer her up in light of her late husband Prince Philip’s declining health. The late Duke of Edinburgh died at the age of 99 that April.

From there, Sandy found her way to Buckingham Palace on the occasion of the Queen’s 95th birthday.

She seemed to have no problem fitting right into the royal lifestyle, easily making her way into the monarch’s heart after the loss of her husband.

The late Queen's former daughter-in-law took over care of her final two corgis, Muick and Sandy, after her passing - housing them at Royal Lodge in Windsor.

The duchess has revealed how Queen Elizabeth 'entrusted' her with their care after death. Sarah shared a photograph of herself crouching on the edge of a field with the dogs, as she commemorated the anniversary of Queen Elizabeth II's death a year today.

Sandy and Muick were given to the Queen during the coronavirus pandemic as gifts from her son the Duke of York. They played a sweet role in her committal service at Windsor Castle last September.

The neatly groomed dogs were brought to the castle's quadrangle for the arrival of the late Queen's coffin, ahead of the service exclusive to family and trusted staff at St George's Chapel. Sarah Ferguson - nicknamed Fergie - wrote: "As we mourn a year on, we also celebrate the wonderful times we shared with Her Late Majesty the Queen.

"She entrusted me with the care of her corgis Sandy and Muick and I am delighted to say they are thriving."

Throughout her life, the Queen owned more than 30 corgis - many of which were direct descendants from Susan, who was an 18th birthday present from her parents in 1944. The Queen fell in love with her father George VI's dog Dookie, and wanted a corgi of her own.

Susan was so loved and cherished that she even accompanied Princess Elizabeth on her honeymoon.

Queen Elizabeth II had a special relationship with corgis, as evidenced by her ownership of Sandy and Muick.

Mourning corgis, an iconic salute: What you missed from the Queen’s funeral

By Julia Naughton

Queen Elizabeth II’s final farewell stretched for more than 12 hours with two separate services taking place before she was laid to rest in a private burial at Windsor.

In an event unlike anything ever witnessed in modern history, the day was replete with pageantry and symbolism bringing closure to the monarch’s 70-year reign.

Here’s what you may have missed.

A moving handwritten note

As the Queen’s coffin processed through Westminster Abbey followed by the King, the Prince and Princess of Wales, their children Prince George and Princess Charlotte, and other royal family members, a handwritten note could be seen atop the wreath of flowers.

The black handwriting read: “In loving and devoted memory, Charles R.” Charles R is Charles Rex, the King’s new signature. Rex is Latin for king. The note was edged in black, which follows the mourning rituals of the royal family.

The card is reminiscent of the note left by Princes William and Harry on the coffin of their mother, Diana, in 1997. It read simply: “Mummy.”

Pearls, pearls, pearls

In a tribute to the late Queen, the Princess of Wales and the Duchess of Sussex accessorised with pearl jewellery. Pearls are traditionally worn by royals in mourning because of their quiet elegance.

Catherine’s Bahrain pearl drop earrings and four-strand pearl and diamond choker were borrowed from the Queen’s jewellery collection, reports British Vogue.

She previously wore the necklace to the Queen and Prince Philip’s diamond wedding anniversary in 2017 and to the funeral of the Duke of Edinburgh in April 2021. In 1982, Princess Diana also borrowed the piece.

Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex’s pearl earrings were a gift from the Queen after her marriage to Prince Harry in 2018.

A spectacular salute

As the procession moved past the Cenotaph in London, King Charles III and his elder son, the Prince of Wales, saluted the UK’s national war memorial – a moment that’s sure to become an iconic image of the day.

In another poignant family moment earlier in the day, Prince George and Princess Charlotte followed the Queen’s coffin alongside their parents and other members of the royal family as it was processed through Westminster Abbey.

The Long Walk like you’ve never seen it

As the hearse made its final journey to Windsor Castle for the committal service at St George’s Chapel, crowds of people filled the Long Walk for as far as the eye could see.

Also watching from afar was the Queen’s favourite pony, Emma. Pipes and drums sounded as the late monarch approached her final resting place.

The loyalest of subjects say goodbye

When the procession arrived in the quadrangle at Windsor, two of the Queen’s corgis, Sandy and Muick, were waiting to say their final goodbye.

After the Queen’s death, it was announced that Sarah, Duchess of York and Prince Andrew would adopt the dogs and live with them at Royal Lodge.

As one of the most photographed women in the world, the reign of Queen Elizabeth II, the late Queen of Britain at the age of 96, has been documented through the lens of cameras thousands of various images during her reign of 70 years, in addition to some of the footage from her childhood and youth before ascending the throne. Black mourning after the death of her father, passing through some private footage while walking with her dogs, in addition to footage of her tours in the gardens and coal mines and inspecting the troops.
Highlights of Queen Elizabeth ’ s life include the moment she sat in the old coronation chair inside Westminster Abbey when she was crowned in 1953, as well as the image of Her Majesty broadcasting her first Christmas TV broadcast to the nation in 1957, a move that would resonate every subsequent year of her reign as television technology shifts.
The images also show the queen ’ s love for horses, with many showing them on horseback or at races, while others reflect her relationship with Corgi ’ s dogs, and many photos show the queen with her beloved husband Prince Philip and their children Prince Charles, Princess Anne, Prince Andrew and Prince Edward at various stages of their early lives.
One of the photographs shows Her Majesty and the Duke of Edinburgh on the balcony of Buckingham Palace in 1954, just two years after her reign with five-year-old Prince Charles and three-year-old Princess Anne, as well as Her Majesty the Queen later in her life, when she continued to perform her sacred duties of stoicism and determination during her long reign.

Queen Elizabeth II had a special relationship with corgis, owning more than 30 throughout her reign and being gifted her first one, Susan, by her father King George VI for her 18th birthday.

Content: King Charles Spaniel numbers are declining and the breed is on the Kennel Club's 'vulnerable list' - amid Corgi boom following Queen Elizabeth's death

  • Corgis have seen boom in popularity after Platinum Jubilee and death of Queen
  • Number of Pembroke Welsh Corgis registered with Kennel Club hit 30-year peak
  • But popularity of King Charles Spaniels is continuing to decline, hitting a low
  • Lovers of the breed are hoping sharing name with new King will boost the dogs

Interest in Corgis has boomed following the Platinum Jubilee and the death of Queen Elizabeth, according to the Kennel Club.

Numbers of Pembroke Welsh Corgis registered with the organisation have reached a 30-year high, the Times reports.

Conversely, King Charles Spaniels are continuing to see a decline in their popularity, with lovers of the breed reportedly hoping that sharing a moniker with the new monarch may give the dogs a boost (though the new king prefers Jack Russells).

The breed, which is on the Kennel Club's vulnerable list, hit a low in 2020, with just 56 registrations. This increased to 91 in 2021, but numbers so far this year are so low, it is likely to drop beneath 2020.

The number of Corgis registered with the Kennel Club has reached a 30-year high, with interest growing following the death of the Queen (pictured here in 1980 with three of the dogs)

Cavalier King Charles Spaniels (as pictured) are doing well in terms of popularity, although their close relative the King Charles Spaniel (not pictured) is seeing a decline

However, it notes that Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, the original breed from which King Charles diverged in the middle of the century, is doing well, with 3,772 registrations last year.

The original Cavalier King Charles Spaniel dog breed was developed from toy spaniels. Popular as women's pets, they were also beloved of King Charles II, who was said to be so fond of his spaniels, he could not be parted from them.

Although Corgis were on the Kennel Club's vulnerable list in 2014, they are now one ofthe UK's most popular breeds, and the Queen is credited with boosting their popularity (pictured: Queen Elizabeth with one of her beloved corgis, Candy)

The Pembroke Welsh Corgi has become known as a symbol of British royalty thanks to its long-standing association with the Queen

Lovers of the ailing King Charles Spaniel may look to the influence the Queen had in turning around the fortune of corgis in recent decades.

The breed was listed as 'vulnerable' in 2014, and the Kennel Club credits Her Majesty's love of the dogs as the major factor in making them one of the UK's most popular breeds today.

Corgis, which have four short legs, a long snout and two huge pointed ears, are famous for being a symbol of British royalty.

HISTORY OF THE CORGI BREED

The word 'Corgi' is Welsh for 'Dwarf Dog', and there are two types; the Pembroke, which is the Queen's breed, and the Cardigan Corgi, a descendent Teckel family of dogs, which also produced the Dachshund

Pembroke Welsh Corgis originated in Pembrokeshire, Wales from the Spitz family of dogs which are characterised by long, thick fur and pointed ears and muzzle

Corgis are a cattle herding breed that can be traced back as far as 1107 AD, thought to have been brought to Wales by  Flemish weavers

They are the type of herding dog referred to as 'heelers', meaning that they would nip at the heels of cattle to keep them moving

The combination of their low height off the ground and the innate agility of Welsh Corgis would allow them to avoid the hooves of the larger animals

They were officially recognised as a native British breed by The Kennel Club in 1928, but Cardigans and Pembrokes weren't seen as separate breeds until 1934

The Queen owned more than 30 of the sandy, short-legged dogs throughout her reign.

She was gifted her first corgi, called Susan, for her 18th birthday from her late father King George VI. Ten generations of her corgis then descended from Susan.

Her dogs were given the Royal treatment having their own rooms with elevated wicker baskets and meals of beef, chick, rabbit, liver, cabbage and rice being prepared by a chef each evening.

Sometimes the Queen herself made the dog's meals. But her late husband was said to have 'loathed' the dogs' yapping.

She left behind two dogs - Sandy and Muick - who are now cared for by Prince Andrew and the Duchess of York at their Royal Lodge home.

Muick, pronounced Mick, joined the royal family at the start of 2021 along with a so-called 'dorgi', a cross between a corgi and a dachshund, called Fergus.

Fergus, who had been named after the Monarch's uncle who was killed during battle in the First World War, died after just five months.

He was later replaced with a new corgi called Sandy, as a 95th birthday present from Prince Andrew and his daughters, Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie.

Meanwhile Muick was named after Loch Muick on the Balmoral Estate.

Palace sources speaking to the Daily Mail previously revealed the beloved corgis were 'with [the Queen] in the room' at her deathbed when she died on September 8 at Balmoral.

They then touched people's hearts when they made a poignant appearance at Her Majesty's funeral on September 19.

As the late monarch's coffin made its way from London to its final resting place in Windsor, Muick and Sandy waited for the processional to pass, to see the Queen for one last time.

The dogs were seen waiting in the quadrangle with two aides before the late monarch was laid to rest in St George's Chapel.

Queen ’ s 98-Year-Old First Statue Reveals 50 Corgi Testimony
The first memorial statue of the late Queen Elizabeth II was unveiled on the occasion of her 98th birthday. Behind the statue, a statue of the Queen ’ s favorite Corgi was also unveiled, and 50 Corgi were witnessed at the unveiling ceremony.
The British Daily Mail reported that the Queen's memorial statue, modeled after her youthful appearance, is made of bronze, 7 feet (2.13 m) tall, wearing a flowing robe, and is accompanied by three Corgi under her feet, one of which also playfully protrudes from the Queen's skirt.
At the unveiling ceremony, nearly 50 dogs from the Welsh Corgi League were also present, barking with "praise".
Sculptor Hywel Pratley, who created the statue, said the statue would not only be popular with royalty fans, but also attract people to check in.
Elizabeth II had 30 corgi and doggies in her lifetime, and no matter where she went, the dogs were almost inseparable.
During her reign, almost everywhere she went, she was able to take pictures of her staying with her dog.
Her love for Corgi dates back to her childhood when her father, King George VI, bought a Pembrokeshire Welsh Corgi when she was 7 years old.
It is reported that in 1944, on the Queen ’ s 18th birthday, a Corgi named Susan arrived.
The Queen loved Susan so much that she even took her husband Prince Philip with her on their honeymoon.
When the Queen gave birth to Prince Charles, now King Charles, the newspaper columns were filled with advice on how to prevent Susan from becoming jealous of the baby prince. After Susan ’ s death in 1959, the Queen herself designed the gravestone for the dog.

Queen Elizabeth II's lifelong love for corgis, which spanned over 70 years, played a significant role in making them cultural icons, with her owning more than 30 corgis throughout her life.

"Queen Elizabeth II's corgis played a significant role in her life, as evident from their presence during her final farewell ceremony, symbolizing the strong bond between the Queen and her beloved pets."

Queen Elizabeth II's love for corgis is well-documented, and she has owned more than 30 Corgis in her lifetime, many of which are direct descendants of her first Corgi, Susan.

Queen Elizabeth II had a well-documented love for corgis, having over 30 dogs during her reign, with a particular fondness for the Pembroke Welsh Corgi breed.

The Queen who has been succeeded by her son, the now His Royal Highness King Charles III, was a big animal lover, but had a definite soft spot for dogs, and in particular, the breed Pembroke Welsh Corgi.

On the day she passed, Queen Elizabeth II had four dogs, two Pembroke Welsh Corgis, one Dorgi — a cross between a Dachshund and a Corgi — and one Cocker Spaniel.

It has been confirmed that her two remaining Corgis, named Muick and Sandy, will now be looked after by her son, Prince Andrew The Duke of York.

He will look after the dogs alongside his ex-wife Sarah Ferguson, The Duchess of York. Despite divorcing in 1997, they remain cohabiting.

The animals will live alongside The Duke and Duchess at their Royal Lodge in Windsor.

The change of ownership was confirmed by a spokesperson for the Duke of York.

Both dogs were gifted to the late monarch by the prince, and so will be returned to his ownership.

During lockdown, Prince Andrew gave Queen Elizabeth two dogs, Muick and Fergus. Sadly, Fergus died last May, and he was replaced with Sandy.

Sarah Ferguson, The Duchess of York, posted an emotional statement following the loss of her former mother-in-law.

"I am heartbroken by the passing of Her Majesty the Queen. She leaves behind an extraordinary legacy: the most fantastic example of duty and service and steadfastness, and a constant steadying presence as our head of state for more than 70 years," she penned.

"To me, she was the most incredible mother-in-law and friend. I will always be grateful to her for the generosity she showed me in remaining close to me even after my divorce. I will miss her more than words can express."

Queen Elizabeth II was renowned for her love of dogs, and other animals including horses.

She began her love of Pembroke Welsh Corgis back in 1933, when she was first given a little corgi named Susan as a gift for her 18th birthday.

All of the subsequent royal corgis bred by the monarch descended from Susan, the original.

As a tribute to the late UK monarch Queen Elizabeth II, who passed away at the age of 96 at her Balmoral estate in Scotland on September 8, after reigning for 70 long years, the Tour de Corgi parade — an annual event that celebrates the dog breed corgi — will include a new element this year that is likely to make fans of the British royal family and corgi lovers happy.

It is no secret that the queen was extremely fond of dogs, especially corgis, from a very early age, and that she had been breeding them until 2018, when she finally realised that she may have to leave some of them behind after her death.

According to Country Living, the queen had four dogs at the time of her death: two Pembroke Welsh Corgis, a Dorgi (Corgi-Dachshund mix), and a Cocker Spaniel named Lissy, who joined the family only this year, in January 2022.

In her lifetime, she reportedly bred 14 generations of corgis, and even famously declared: “My corgis are family.”

According to an Independent report, Queen Elizabeth‘s love for her four-legged friends was well-documented during this year’s platinum jubilee celebrations in the UK, when the sky above Buckingham Palace was lit up with images of the dog breed.

The publication mentioned that the Tour de Corgi parade this year — which has been taking place in Fort Collins, Colorado since 2014 — will include a “Queen Elizabeth and her corgis” costume competition, in “memorium and to honour her”, quoting the event’s organisers who shared this with a local newspaper ‘The Coloradoan‘.

This is a May 12, 1973 file photo of Queen Elizabeth II sitting with her corgis, at Virginia Water to watch competitors, including Prince Philip in the Marathon of the European Driving Championship, part of the Royal Windsor Horse Show.

Tour de Corgi founder Tracy Stewart was quoted as saying, “We all have a very strong affection for her as a fellow corgi lover. I think it is just, you know, our dogs are such a big part of our hearts that it creates a very heartfelt connection.”

The aforementioned event will take place on October 1, 2022, and will conclude with a corgi parade through the town.

According to a Reader’s Digest report, the queen was fond of corgis because of their “energy and untamed spirit”, and the fact that her parents welcomed the family’s first corgi, Dookie, in 1933. Eleven years later, in 1944, the queen’s father gifted her a corgi named Susan for her 18th birthday. The pupper even accompanied her on her honeymoon, and gave birth to a pair of puppies in 1949, which reportedly marked the beginning of the royal line of corgis.

The statue was commissioned by Dr. Sarah Furness, Lord Lieutenant of Rutland.
The woman says that she was literally flooded with letters after the death of the Queen.
Many Britons felt the loss as personal.
Furness explained that the intention was to reproduce the life-long image of the Queen.
The memorial statue of the Queen is inspired by a photo from 1950-1960.

Content: A corgi named Florence has captured the hearts of social media users after her owner, Jacqui, shared a snap of her looking 'emotional' while they watched the Queen's state funeral.

Posting on Twitter as @vanbommelj, Jacqui uploaded an image of five-year-old Florence (also known as Flo) spread out on the floor in front of the television, with the Queen's funeral procession on in the background.

She captioned the tweet, writing: "It's been an emotional week for a corgi too."

Dozens of people have since liked the tweet, with Jacqui following it up with an image of Flo also stealing the show during the Queen's Platinum Jubilee celebrations this summer.

The image, taken at a street party, shows a cardboard cut out of the Queen, with Florence's lead around it's hand, and the pooch sat obediently below, looking up at the cardboard monarch's face.

Speaking about Florence, Jacqui told The Mirror: "This is Florence a pedigree corgi who we bought from Mary Davies, a breeder in Wales. Mary Davies is part of the Welsh Corgi League and was in the documentary on the Queen’s Corgi’s as her kennel provided a sire for the Queen’s corgi’s.

"Florence has just turned five years old and is lovely natured, she qualified for Crufts but then ruined her looks by knocking a tooth out. She is much happier running on the beaches and wild spaces of the south coast where we live."

Jacqui continued to say: "She is our daughter Ruby’s dog.

"Six years ago Ruby researched the best small dog to fit our family. She settled on Corgis as at the time they were on The Kennel Club's endangered breed list, plus they are known as being a big dog in a small body. Ruby saved all her babysitting and pocket money and did a paper round to pay for half of Florence. The other half being in lieu of three birthday and Christmas presents."

Jacqui added: "Now Florence spends her time out walking every day, promoting the breed to everyone she meets letting them know that Corgis are strong obedient little dogs bred for cattle herding and will happily trek for miles which helps with weight control.

"Her other duties include keeping an ear alert for anyone passing by and attending our street parties (also posted on twitter).

"She was pictured stealing the show as we watched the funeral with my 80 year old parents who watched King George's funeral together as children. They were in the same house crowded around a small black and white TV, my mum remembers this fidgety boy, they later married and had five children. But that’s another story..."

This comes as the Queen's corgis were seen waiting for the coffin to arrive back at Windsor Castle.

Prince Andrew was seen with his late mother's dogs, Muick and Sandy as they were walked inside the grounds of the castle ahead of the Committal Service.

More and more people are keeping pets, so that they become family, accompany each other, and become a part of their lives.
But people will grow old, pets will also, each life encounter is fate, how to accompany each other, mutual care, is an important life lesson.
To measure retirement.
Whether you are a person or not, you must be prepared to live a good life in the future.
The United Daily News has launched “Six Animals to Test Your Retirement Ability ”. Please fill in the assessment to see if you are not ready for retirement.
Mao children are the focus of many people's lives, emotional sustenance, but the encounter of life and life, there is a point at the beginning, some people are worried about the future care of Mao children, such as the death of Queen Elizabeth II of England, at the age of 80, had planned not to let her Corgi to leave descendants; but some people said, "Children accompany, let me have the strength to live."
This is the true confession of Chen Wenxi, a senior media person.
The Queen didn't want Corky to be a descendant.
Elizabeth II loved the Corgi and always had them around her.
Having raised five Corgi at the same time, she was inseparable from them wherever she went, but in 2005, at the age of 80, the Queen made a decision not to let her Corgi have children any more.
She said, “I don ’ t want to leave my puppies after I ’ m gone. ”
I am afraid that they will be alone if they are not accompanied. "
Chen Wenxi has been in poor physical condition for several years. Since she was weak and sick, her immune system attacked the heart and nervous system in 2019, and she suddenly fainted several times and passed away with death.
She said that the motivation that underpins her brave suffering is the six dogs in the family, and the children ’ s companionship has given her the strength to live. “The more sick she is, the more she must have a dog, and she must live for the fur child. ”
Worried that the fur child is alone, or for the fur child to live, the starting point is love for the fur child.
Regardless of age, physical condition, from the beginning of the decision to raise, there is a responsibility to it, as in the "little prince", the fox reminds him, "always be responsible for the object you are told", and the life of the fur child is for the most part shorter than that of human beings, learning to say goodbye to life is also an important lesson.
He Tsung-hsun, secretary-general of the Taiwan Federation of Animal Protection Administrative Supervisors, is closely related to the husky dog's daughter, Chi Hsin, who lives at least 13 or four years longer. And...
He has been involved in the animal protection movement for 12 years, and has recently been actively promoting issues such as pet parks, pet transportation, elderly dog care, and inappropriate handling of attack dogs, so that our living environment can be better for fur children.
If the family members who adopted the pet together leave, the pet will also miss the family members who have passed away.
Artist Hitomi Wang and her late husband Aicheng adopted their love dog Haruo eight years ago, which was a abused Malzis.
At home, Ai Cheng is the servant of Harun, and the king is the queen.
Wang recalls that Ai Cheng and Haru both love to snooze when they sleep. They are "like a father, like a son". Sometimes Ai Cheng and Haru play too high and are bitten by Haru, and they are precious memories to this day.
“Dogs are a good example given by God, and as long as they have simple love, perhaps the reason for their short life span is because they have learned to love people. ” Wang said, a few days before Aicheng happened, Harun often sat and meditated, and especially clung to Aicheng, and after Aicheng left, Harun often looked at the door, as if waiting for his father to return home.
End-of-life lessons for pets
Chen Wenxi, who is used to calling Mao children "children", said that in recent years, children have died in succession, and there are nine children's ashes in the family, which makes her no longer afraid of death, and for her, pets are teaching owners to accept loss, "To thank my children, with so much pain and death, teach me that God can't teach me my homework."
As for the Queen of England, although she has said that she does not want to leave the puppies alone, she later accepted to take care of the dog babysitter husband and wife left behind by Whispe.
The Queen is accompanied by a dog until the end of her life.
Digital version here.
She has 17 dogs, and she has a will to the orphan.
When it comes to a person and a pet, many people think of Chen Wenxi, a media person who loves dogs, who has owned 17 dogs since the adoption of the "old smoking gun" Pomei dog when he was studying in the United States 30 or 40 years ago, and now has six fur children.
She learned that her health was not good, and she made a will to care for the dog, and heard her talk about how to arrange a care plan for the fur child.

The most loyal public servant of Queen Elizabeth II should belong to her Corgi.
These puppies have been at the Queen ’ s feet for generations, accompanying her for nearly a century, and the Queen has raised more than 30 Corgi in her lifetime.
The combination of the Queen and the Corgi is as natural as the British drink tea and cake, making the little-known breed known around the world.
This brown puppy with pointy ears bustled around the Buckingham Palace, following the Queen from room to room and appearing in official photographs.
In the 2012 London Olympics opening video, the puppies even performed as part of the show.
In the film, the Queen of England leaves Buckingham Palace accompanied by Daniel Craig's 007 agent and climbs into a helicopter, leaving behind her Corgi dogs Holly, Monty and Willow.

As a child, the Queen loved the Corgi.
When she was seven years old in 1933, little Elizabeth visited the home of a friend who had a dog and wanted to have one. Her father, George VI, gave her her first dog, Dookie.
However, the royal Corgi family, which has been with the Queen for more than 70 years, originated in 1944 when King George VI gave her her Corgi, Susan, on the Queen ’ s 18th birthday.
Even as the Queen went on her honeymoon and ascended to the throne at the age of 25, Susan accompanied her.
She loves Susan so much, and the Corky dogs she keeps are all descendants of Susan.
The Queen stopped keeping Corgi in her 90s because she didn ’ t want the puppy to become an orphan after her death. In 2018, her last Corgi dog, Vero, died.
Despite this, in the last moments of her life, the Queen was accompanied by two "Dachshund" dogs, mixed with the Koki.
One of the puppies, Vulcan, died in 2020.
But in March 2021, it was rumored that the Queen had two more Corgi puppies.
The royal family was battling a series of crises, including the Queen ’ s husband, Prince Philip, who was in declining health at the time.
The two Corgi are said to have been with the Queen when she moved to quarantine at Windsor Castle in the western suburbs of London during the outbreak.
Royal writer Penny Junor told The Sun that the dogs loved the Queen very much and never disappointed her.
She said, “Of course, the Corgi won ’ t go to Los Angeles for an interview. ”
She was referring to Prince Harry and his wife Meghan, who spat bitterly during an interview with the famous Oprah Winfrey, accusing the royal family of racism and not supporting them.
According to Brian Hoey, author of Pets by Royal Appointment, the Queen loves her Corgi so much that she prepares her own food for them.
Every day at 5 p.m., the servant prepares the dog ’ s filet steak and chicken breast for dinner, and the Queen personally waters the gravy.
However, not everyone in the royal family loves dogs.
According to Hoy, the Queen ’ s husband reportedly doesn ’ t like the stumbling, short-legged puppies because they bark too much.
