Charles has been given a new four-legged friend for the first time in more than two decades
King Charles has been utterly charmed by a new dog he received as an unexpected gift, and he's already given the pooch an adorable moniker. After more than two decades without a canine companion, Charles is reportedly overjoyed with his new four-legged pal, which he got about a month ago.
Charles and Queen Camilla are set to visit Ravenna in Italy this April, but it seems the dog's arrival is just a happy coincidence, with Palace sources indicating that Snuff was a personal gift. This news comes hot on the heels of Queen Camilla revealing she had adopted a rescue dog named Moley. The UK Kennel Club describes the lagotto, meaning "curly coated duck retriever" in Italian dialect, noting its recent shift from waterfowl to truffles due to habitat changes. "The acute scenting powers of the lagotto have been utilised in truffle hunting and this is now his primary use in his native land," the Club explains, reports the Mirror.
She told the dog's owner, Susan Mason, 66, who is partially-sighted: "I've just got a new puppy, she's eight-weeks old," and when asked about the breed, she chuckled and said: "You may well ask, a bit of everything. It's a rescue dog. It's called Moley - it looks just like a mole."
