Queen Elizabeth II's last royal corgi, Willow, has reportedly passed away, the Daily Mail reports. The dog was apparently put to sleep on Sunday after a battle with cancer, and royal sources allegedly told the Mailthat the queen is taking it "extremely hard."

Willow is the last remaining descendant of a long line of royal corgis bred from the Queen's beloved first dog, Susan. After the queen took a liking to a corgi brought home by her father King George VI in 1933, she was gifted her own, thus beginning a tradition of royal corgis.

Willow's death marks the end of the line as, per The Telegraph, the queen has stopped breeding her corgis. But worry not – the queen isn't totally without royal canine companions. As the Daily Mail reports, she still has her "dorgis" Vulcan and Candy, both crosses between a dachshund and a corgi.

In Willow's memory, please enjoy this regal corgi tea party we held back when the queen took the title of longest-reigning monarch.
