In September 2022, Queen Elizabeth II died after a long reign as the monarch of Britain. With a legacy that is hard to ignore, there is definitely one thing that we all associate with the Queen and that would be her love of Corgis. And following her death, Sarah Ferguson is one of the caretakers for these beloved animals.

While speaking to People Magazine, Ferguson opened up about taking care of these iconic Corgis. In fact, she actually talked about them being considered national icons considering they were a link to the Queen that helped to make her more relatable to the average person.

However, the thing that stuck out the most about her chat with People was when she talked about the dogs barking. She pointed out that there have been times when the dogs will start barking at nothing, there won’t even be a small animal like a squirrel around. And according to Sarah Ferguson, she truly believes that these are moments when the Queen is passing by and the dogs are saying hello.

Sarah Ferguson talks about taking care of the Queen’s Corgis

We love the idea that perhaps the Queen is still in residence in some small way, and the idea that her dogs are saying hello. There’s something very special about that thought.

Of course, Ferguson also pointed out that she panics a bit when the two Corgis go chasing after squirrels. And we totally understand that as well. When you have responsibility for two animals that are truly beloved by the public and the people, there is an added level of pressure to make sure that nothing happens to them.

As dog owners, we sometimes panic when our pup does things that is actually natural to them. It’s not about what other people think so much as making sure that they are okay and not doing something that could potentially hurt them in the long run.

Considering Sarah Ferguson and her family, her daughters and ex-husband, are the ones who actually gifted these dogs to the Queen, it just feels right that they are the ones taking care of these two corgis. It feels fitting and it seems like a good fit.
