After Queen Elizabeth's death on September 8, 2022, the Queen's beloved corgis went to live with Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson. The Queen's dogs are fluffy and adorable, but some of them apparently once wreaked havoc on the Royal Lodge and were a “nightmare” to live with.

Craig Brown, in his book Q: A Voyage Around the Queen, wrote (via Hello! magazine), “Corgis turned out to be an unpredictable and feisty bunch.

Brown recalled Dookie, the Queen's first Corgi, who reportedly liked to chew on people's heels and break furniture. Brown wrote, “He used to happily attack the dining room chairs in the Royal Lodge, the family home in Windsor Great Park.”

Prince Andrew and his former wife, the Duchess of York, now live at the Royal Lodge. However, it is unclear if their current dog has an aggressive personality.

Brown also revealed that he was given the difficult task of training the Queen's corgi because Princess Anne is “sweet” on “biters.”

In the same book, author Brown reveals the surefire way the queen was able to silence her corgi.

“As it happens, the method of getting rid of a belligerent corgi is the same as for a belligerent human being.

“Fortunately, the queen always had her bagpipes on hand.”

In August, Ferguson took to Instagram to share a sweet photo of the late queen with her corgis, writing, “Wishing you and all your furry friends a happy #InternationalDogDay.” She continued, “I wish you a very happy #InternationalDogDay.” A special treat on this special day for Sandy and Muick, who bring unconditional love, loyalty, and joy into our lives!”
