Queen's death casts uncertainty over fate of beloved corgis

For many people around the world, the word corgi is forever linked to Queen Elizabeth II. Princess Diana once called them a moving carpet" always by her mother-in-law's side. Stubby, fluffy little dogs with a high-pitched bark, corgis were the late queen's constant companions since she was a child. She owned nearly 30 throughout her life, and they enjoyed a life of privilege fit for a royal pet.
