Two of the late Queen's corgis were by the side of Her Majesty in her final hours, The Mail on Sunday understands.
The beloved pets, Muick and Sandy, were 'with her in the room' at her deathbed on September 8, according to Palace sources.
Muick and Sandy touched people's hearts with their poignant appearance at Windsor Castle during the Queen's last journey on Monday.
Prince Andrew had given Muick, named after Loch Muick on the Balmoral estate, and pronounced 'Mick', to the Queen as a pup, along with another named Fergus. When Fergus died three months later, another corgi, Sandy, was found to replace him with the help of the Queen's granddaughter Princess Beatrice.
Although the Queen adored her corgis, her pets did not always reciprocate her unwavering loyalty. In the 1980s, she was nipped on the hand by a corgi and needed stitches.
