Celebrating Dog Appreciation Day with the lifelong appreciation between Queen Elizabeth II and her beloved corgis. Her Majesty’s father, King George VI, first introduced the breed of Welsh herding dog to Buckingham Palace in 1933, with the then Princess being given her own corgi, Susan, in 1944. The first in a long line of royal corgis, Susan was said to have accompanied Elizabeth and the Duke of Edinburgh on honeymoon.
