The Royal family loves pets as much as we do. Here is some history to keep your curiosity at bay.

Since the 17th century the Royals have been seen posing proudly with their beloved animals. Just some of the pets the Royals have owned are Pugs, King Charles Spaniels, Greyhounds and of course the most commonly associated – the Corgi.

King Edward VII’s pet was a terrier named Caesar. He outlived the King and at His Majesty’s funeral Caesar walked behind the coffin. As mentioned in a previous post, the current Queen is associated with the Corgi. At present the Queen owns three Corgis: Monty, Willow and Holly plus three Dorgis: Cider, Candy and Vulcan.

Corgis are mated with dachsunds (most notably Pipkin, who belonged to Princess Margaret) to create ‘Dorgis’. The Duchess of Cornwall owns two Jack Russell terriers, Tosca and Rosie. I hope this look into the Royal family has been as enjoyable for you as it has been for us.

Buying a horse is a very big decision and many things need to be taken into consideration. If you wish to use your own land you will need at least two acres. You will need to have the land properly fenced off, if you choose to have a wooden fence it must be sturdy. Some electric fences are sturdy enough they can even hold a horses weight when the power is off. Wire fences are not good as the horse can get tangled in them. Obviously barbed wire fence are out of the question.

But an easier option is to rent a stable that you go to each day to feed, clean and exercise your horse, or have someone do it for you but this will cost considerably more.

Horses are expensive and time consuming but very rewarding, never underestimate the time, energy and love you need to give to take care of these beautiful creatures.
