The Queen.

The Queen's dog; a cocker spaniel called Lissi (nee Wolferton Drama)

If that is a cocker spaniel - I’ll eat my hat!

I am always amazed at those who seem to have insider information.
We can all speculate but who in fact knows what the Queens thoughts are?

Quite a few on GN seemingly! Eg she doesn’t want to be seen in a wheelchair ?? She misses Philip too much ?

I think Prince Charles is already taking over the reins quietly as his mother becomes more frail - and with her knowledge and consent. But she intends to remain Queen until she dies and the red boxes will still come to her.

Absolutely.

WW that’s exactly what I thought! ?

Here is another picture of Lissi, the ‘cocker spaniel’
It doesn’t make any sense, does it?
I can’t find any photos of her looking like a CS

Should they be told??!

So what caused your doubt?

She doesn’t look like one!

The inset photo does look like a CS
Whether it’s because Lissi has had her fur cut short that she looks so different, I don’t know.

I think a lot of very elderly people lost mobility during the pandemic, not doing what they usually do. The Queen’s life changed like everybody else’s.

They did, my Mum in law for one. I met with an OT and she said so many people were sent home from hospital during that time unable to meet the requirements mobility wise to be discharged but we were in a pandemic so different rules.

Goodness knows what the psychological impact is. I guess we wont know for years

You’re a doggy person Jane; what do you think about Lissi?

None of those dogs look like cocker spaniels. The first one could be a cocker cross but it’s impossible to tell. Her Maj is a corgi/Dorgie woman. I expect there are working cockers and labs around given the RF enjoy shooting, they’ll need retrievers.

she doesn't look like a spaniel! I think it looks a bit like full size dachshund

It’s a Dorgie

Any cockers she may have will be kennelled. They are working dogs.

Iam they are all of the same dog, apparently
WW no, Lissi is most definitely a pet.
It was a news story last year that Her Maj had a new dog after saying that she wouldn’t have any more.
She was a gift.

It’s not me just making stuff up!

Lissi looks more like a Welsh Corgi! Very much like the rescue Corgi we had when I was 6, his name was Taffy.

No idea what the Queen may be thinking, nobody tells me anything. ?‍♀️

Could be a cocker/corgi cross they have much too short legs for cockers in my opinion

I agree, how does anyone know. I can only state what I see, and that is a hard working 95 year lady, who has lost her husband, and who perhaps has age related heath conditions.
I think she is amazing, and very hard working, she has remained dignified, and puts duty first.

There are two Corgi breeds, The Pembrokeshire Corgi and
The Cardigan Corgi , both Welsh Corgis, the difference is their
ears

I read this morning that she didn't want to be seen in a wheelchair when presumably that is what she would need.

I read that too Sparklefizz. Personally I see nothing wrong in using a wheelchair. Too many, especially older people, won’t use one when it would improve their lives so much by enabling them. The Queen could do a lot for disabled people in this way.

I have a vision of the Queen in a golden mobility scooter festooned with diamonds whizzing around.

I suggested that on another thread and was told I was ungrateful and asking too much of her.

Do you get in and out of a car from a wheelchair?

My question was to 24Avalon

This is the dog in question I believe
