After the Queen's death, a source told CNN that the corgis would live with Ferguson and her ex-husband, Prince Andrew. The pair divorced in 1996 but continue to live at the Royal Lodge on the Windsor estate.
After the British monarch died in September, it was revealed her two dogs will be cared for moving forward by her son Prince Andrew, and his ex-wife, Sarah, Duchess of York. (While Andrew and Fergie are divorced, they still live together at Royal Lodge in Windsor.)
Before her death, the Queen left behind a will and testament that leaves her possessions, including dogs and horses, to designated beneficiaries. However, to whom she leaves her animals will likely be kept under wraps for a long time.

Queen Elizabeth II, the monarch who brought stability to a changing nation. She leaves behind at least four dogs — two corgis, one cocker spaniel and one dorgi (a dachshund corgi hybrid that the Queen is credited in originating).
Fergus however died from a heart defect at five-months old in the same year. In June 2021, the Queen was gifted a new corgi, Sandy, by Andrew, Beatrice and Eugenie. It was Sarah, Duchess of York, who found the puppies that were gifted to the Queen.
As Queen, Elizabeth II became perhaps the most famous Pembroke Welsh Corgi owner in history. She owned more than 30 of the dogs in her lifetime. On that birthday in 1944, a love affair was born, for both the future monarch and the world.
Queen Elizabeth would take many of her dogs with her as she traveled, seen here with one of her corgis in the garden at Balmoral Castle in 1952. Queen Elizabeth pets a corgi during a photo session with the Royal Family in the Frogmore Gardens at Windsor Castle in 1968.

Death and legacy
Following Susan's death at Sandringham House on 26 January 1959, she was buried in the pet cemetery that Queen Victoria had founded there. The Queen drew up plans for a gravestone, sending a sketch, along with an initial inscription, to Robert Marrington, who dealt with the works on the Crown Estate.
The first time the Queen ever looked after a corgi was when she was just seven years old. As a gift from her parents the Duke and Duchess of York, the young monarch was given a Pembroke Welsh corgi, registered under the name Rozavel Golden Eagle - otherwise known by his nickname Dookie.
Queen Elizabeth II was in fact survived by four dogs: two corgis, a dorgi and a cocker spaniel. The last, Lissy, is a baffler, since she wasn't of either breed for which the Queen had such pronounced preference, and Elizabeth named her after herself.
What happened to the Queen's racehorses? Upon her passing in September 2022, there was uncertainty about what fate would befall the Queen's racehorses and stable. However, it has now been confirmed that the registration of all her racehorses has been transferred to King Charles and Queen Camilla, who become co-owners.
While it is likely that secretaries, housekeepers, chefs, chauffeurs, gardeners etc. will be kept on, some of the queen's more personal staff may be made redundant or choose to leave the household voluntarily, such as her footmen and dressers.
It's a dachshund and corgi mix that Queen Elizabeth II herself is often credited with creating a few decades ago. Prince Andrew gave Muick to his mother during the pandemic to keep her company, while Sandy was a gift for her 95th birthday from Andrew, Eugenie and Beatrice.

Her rumoured last words were: “All my possessions for one moment of time.” Historians believe this statement is apocryphal. The Queen's Lady of the Bedchamber refused to allow Elizabeth's body to be subject to a post-mortem. Some argue that this was a way to safeguard the Queen's reputation as a virgin.
One of the most well-known royally-loved breeds, famously championed by Queen Elizabeth II, is the Welsh Corgi. During her reign, the Queen owned more than thirty of these friendly, happy, and fun-loving dogs.
