Queen Victoria's reign was from 1837 (when she was 18) until her death in 1901. And in case you didn't know, she was a big animal lover. She owned a number of different breeds of dogs - including collies, a deerhound, greyhounds, Pomeranians, Skye terriers, and a King Charles Spaniel. She owned an assortment of other pets as well, including Shetland ponies, goats, a donkey and a parrot. But she had a special love for her dogs, and when on her deathbed, she requested that her Pomeranian, Turi be brought to bed with her. Yup - she loved her dogs.
Well, we have another sunny day in the forecast - which means EXTRA long walks again! A sunny day. A good walk. Seriously, can life get any better? It's the little things in life...
Happy birthday Queen V - and thanks for the day off!
