How long has the Queen being a corgi lover?

Queen Elizabeth II's love for corgis began in 1933 when she received her first corgi, named Dookie, as a pet. This fondness continued throughout her life, leading her to own over 30 corgis and dachshunds, often keeping them by her side. Her passion for the breed became well-known, and she was often seen with her beloved dogs during public appearances.
