Britain's Queen Elizabeth is mourning the death of one of her beloved corgi
dogs after it was savaged by her daughter's bull terrier, newspapers reported on
Wednesday.
Princess Anne's bull terrier Dottie, which last year earned her a fine by
biting two children, attacked the corgi at a royal family gathering at the
Sandringham estate in eastern England on Monday, the top-selling Sun tabloid
said.
The Daily Mail said the corgi, Pharos, was later put down, having suffered
three fractures to one of its hind legs.
Pharos was one of the queen's oldest and most devoted pets. Anne was fined
500 pounds ($882) in November last year after Dottie attacked two children, aged
seven and 12, in Windsor Great Park near London.
