Talk of the Town: The Queen is happy! The Queen may be well-known for her passion for Corgis but she is also proud to own a Cocker Spaniel, named “Lissy”, who won the national champion dog title.










While the queen is famous for her love of corgis, it is also well-known that she has a prize-winning cocker spaniel.

Wolferton Drama (4 years) was the top dog at Kennel Club Cocker Spaniel Championship. 

She saw off 38 competitors to become the Queen’s first gundog champion in any breed.

Although the queen is famous for her love for corgis she also owns a prize-winning cocker spaniel.

Trainer Ian Openshaw tells me: ‘Lissy used to be a bit of a monkey when she was younger, but she has really come into her own now.’ 

He could refer to any number of Royals…

George tells me: ‘A friend sent me Bea’s version of Budapest – it came at just the right time in my day. It made me stop and it made me smile.’
