On this week’s episode of Make It Reign, Yahoo Canada‘s all-royal podcast, we’re diving into the history books and profiling the corgi that started it all – Queen Elizabeth’s beloved dog, Susan. From biting royal workers to accompanying her Majesty on her honeymoon, Susan the Corgi paved the way for the Queen’s trademark canine breed.

Everyone knows, when it comes to Queen Elizabeth and whom she loves most the pecking order is (most likely) Prince Philip, the corgis, pretty much everyone else and then Prince Charles.

From royally approved breeds to pet-ownership taboos, it’s all here on our latest episode, “Unleash The Corgis!”
