The Queen is known for her love of Corgis and she added two new puppies to her brood.
According to sources, she bought the two puppies from a pet website and paid them £ 2,650. And although she loves Corgis, one of the new puppies is a cross between a corgi and a dachshund – and known as a dorgi.
The Dorgi was named Fergus – after the monarch’s uncle. Fergus Bowes-Lyon was the Queen’s uncle and her mother’s brother, who died during World War I in 1915.
While the Corgi is named Muick – after a lake in Balmoral. Highland-based Loch Muick is said to be one of the Queen’s favorite spots and is regularly seen walking the Loch when she visits Balamoral.

The Queen is said to have owned up to 30 Corgis and has been worshiping dogs since she was little. She also owned a handful of Dorgis.
A source told The Sun: ‘The two name choices are extremely poignant and dear to the Queen. Loch Muick is one of his favorite spots on the Balmoral Estate and the loss of Uncle Fergus in WWI is still honored by the family.
While the source also explained that one of the new puppies will keep the Queen’s company at Windsor Castle, while the other will help Prince Philip recover from his operation.
The Queen isn’t the only member of the royal family to acquire puppies during the pandemic – Kate and William welcomed an 8-month-old Cocker Spaniel into the family in January, after their dog Lup died last year.
