Sarah Ferguson has posted new photographs of Queen Elizabeth II's dogs who have lived with her and her ex-husband Prince Andrew since the late monarch's death in 2022. To mark International Dog Day, the Duchess of York has shared two photographs with the corgis, called Sandy and Muick.

The corgis belonged to the late Queen and gave her companionship in her later years, with Andrew, 65, and Sarah, 65, taking care of them after her death. It is believed Prince Andrew, the late Queen's son, had originally given the dogs to his mother as a gift.

In the new photographs, Sandy and Muick can be seen looking well as they stand on a tree log next to Sarah Ferguson in one picture.

In the second, they can be seen standing with Sarah and Andrew's Norfolk terriers.

Sarah captioned the post: "Life is simply better with a wagging tail at your side. Celebrating our companions today and always. Happy #InternationalDogDay!"

Sarah has given occasional updates on the corgis and their wellbeing over the years, revealing in 2023 that they were "thriving" in their new home despite initially grieving their previous owner.

Royal fans have always been delighted to hear such updates, especially after the dogs were pictured looking sad at the late monarch's funeral.

Commenting on her recent post today, one fan wrote: "How nice to see the royal corgis."

Another said: "Beautiful photos! I'm very happy that Queen Elizabeth's dogs are so well cared for by you."

Someone else said: "The corgis are thriving under your love and care."
