Buckingham Palace<\/a> has confirmed that the late Queen Elizabeth II’s beloved corgis<\/a>, Muick and Sandy, will remain in the care of Andrew Mountbatten Windsor and Sarah Ferguson.<\/p>\n

The couple adopted the dogs following the monarch<\/a>‘s death, housing them at Royal Lodge. Speculation over the future of the two dogs had mounted after the pair’s departure from the Windsor address, but their continued care has now been assured.<\/p>\n

Buckingham Palace said in a statement: \u201cThe corgis will remain with the family.\u201d<\/p>\n

However, it did not clarify if it would be Andrew, Sarah or Princesses Eugenie and Beatrice who would give them a home.<\/p>\n

Earlier this year, Sarah claimed that the late Queen communicated to her through the dogs\u2019 barking.<\/p>\n

In an address to the Creative Women Platform in London, reported by The Times newspaper, she said: \u201cI have her dogs, I have her corgis. Every morning they come in and go \u2018woof woof\u2019 and all that and I\u2019m sure it\u2019s her talking to me.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m sure it\u2019s her, reminding me she\u2019s still around.\u201d<\/p>\n

And in 2023, Sarah described how one of the corgis, Muick, had grieved after the late Queen\u2019s death.<\/p>\n

Speaking to Graeme Hall, presenter of the Channel 5 show Dogs Behaving (Very) Badly, Sarah said it took Muick about a year to come to terms with Queen Elizabeth II\u2019s death.<\/p>\n

She said: \u201cThere are two corgis that came, big Muick and Sandy, and there were five Norfolk terriers that were there too \u2013 seven in all.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd big Muick is very, very, very demonstrative, he had his tail down to begin with and then now, a year later \u2026 he\u2019s just beginning now to really enjoy (himself).\u201d<\/p>\n

The late Queen owned more than 30 corgis during her life, many of which were directly descended from Susan, given to her as an 18th birthday present by her parents in 1944.<\/p>\n

The then Princess Elizabeth forged such a strong connection with Susan that the dog accompanied her on her honeymoon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Buckingham Palace has confirmed that the late Queen Elizabeth II’s beloved corgis, Muick and Sandy, will remain in…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":25908,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[37],"tags":[15345,2417,15884,16467,9,24,63,1312,122,124,123,15373],"class_list":{"0":"post-25907","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-queens","8":"tag-andrew-mountbatten-windsor","9":"tag-buckingham-palace","10":"tag-corgis","11":"tag-corgis-muick","12":"tag-new-york","13":"tag-new-york-city","14":"tag-nyc","15":"tag-queen-elizabeth-ii","16":"tag-queens","17":"tag-queens-headlines","18":"tag-queens-news","19":"tag-sarah-ferguson"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25907","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=25907"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25907\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/25908"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=25907"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=25907"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=25907"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
