Yeah "peanuts" was a guinea pig and she also had a pony that she had when she was with her mom. There is a photo of her with him I can't remeber his name though.

Apparently she fell off the pony and didn't ride again until her Hewitt days!
Perhaps i am just prejudiced, as we have the girliest black Labrador ever! Almost 11!
Prince Charles had Harvey while he was courting Diana. After the marriage, allegedly she made him give up Harvey. (Sorry, no love interests will come between me and my pets, who all happen to be cats right now!)
Anne's dog seemed to be unruly. And that's unusual because I think she's very much in command of her animals. (And, oh, wouldn't that have been awful to have your dog kill your mother The Queen's pet? Yikes. Anne could have been sent to the Tower!)
And when I heard about Diana "making" Charles give up Harvey, I couldn't imagine that he would have been so spineless, IF he truly liked the dog. After all, it was a hunting dog and how much time would Diana have had to spend with it? I always thought there was more to this story than got into the books and magazines.
Your pitbulls are nothing like our English Bull Terriers!Princess Anne has a liking for what we in the U.S. call pitbull terriers, or just pitbulls. Anne had a problem with one in the past few years, that bit a youngster and Anne got a citation for it. And I believe Anne had a pitbull that mortally injured one of HM's corgis.
I understood Diana found him to be a little boisterous and threatening, Harvey that is. Any dog will 'try it on' with what it sees as an intruder on it's territory and not every person is an animal lover, willing to put up with a few muddy pawprints.iowabelle said:Diana "making" Charles give up Harvey, I couldn't imagine that he would have been so spineless, IF he truly liked the dog
That's not riding, that's sitting on a pony as it's walking!
The Queen also had Dorgi'sCasiraghiTrio said:Corgis are so precious, though, I like that breed too.

Re Harvey

Charles rehomed Harvey to ease the tensions with his new wife, IMO. He would have been better keeping Harvey as it turned out!
Dorgi's?
Erm - that's WELSH corgi, if you don't mind...
One of the Queen’s corgis misbehaved with a dachshund named Pipkin which belonged to Princess Margaret. She owns four Dorgis at the moment.

No, after that, having seen the result, they bred them!How cute is that?! So this happened just once? All four of the Dorgis are from the same, erm, "misbehavior"?
