Know it's highly unlikely to expect a comment from His Illuminated Majesty's Air Force, but there are reports of thousands of Dachshunds and Dorgis descending upon Balmoral and London. Are there any plans the 699th can share to reassure everyone of the security of the services? Or what Her Majesty was referring to when she said to Candy, her Dorgi, "And where did you come from?
I know what you want."

What is a dorgi? A look at Queen's royal pets as Candy makes surprise appearance
THE QUEEN makes no secret of her love of dogs, and it seems Britain's longest-serving monarch is a huge fan of one dog breed in particular. So what is a dorgi, and how many pets does the Queen have?

The Queen was recently photographed looking at memorabilia for her Platinum Jubilee in the run-up to the anniversary of her accession on Sunday, February 6. And to the delight of animal fans, the Queen received a special visit from her beloved pet dog Candy, who looked like he was after a tasty royal snack. After Candy walked proudly into the Oak Room of Windsor Castle, the pup approached some of the people in the media who had gathered for the event.
The Queen gave her beloved pooch a stroke and was heard saying: "And where did you come from? I know what you want." The Queen is known to be an animal enthusiast, and Candy is one of many dorgis the Queen has owned over the years.

Is Candy related to any 699th Members?

Queen Elizabeth II holds a dachshund under her arm as she watches the veterinary inspection on the last day of the Badminton Horse Trials in 1976.
The Queen’s dorgis may have one of the most famous women in the world as their owner - but they have no idea. They have been known to make appearances at some of her engagements, and have met other notable people like the 2012 New Zealand rugby team.
It's believed the Queen had four dogs at the time of her death: two Pembroke Welsh Corgis, a Dorgi (Corgi-Dachshund mix), and a Cocker Spaniel named Lissy. Lissy joined the family in January 2022. She's also credited with creating the Dorgi after breeding one of her dogs with Princess Margaret's dachshund Pipkin.
Any comment from Lt Col Root Beer or Lt Biscuit about the Dorgi breeding with Princess Margaret's dachshund Pipkin? ![Dog :dog:](./images/smilies/dog.gif)
