Overview

• Buckingham Palace released the first official images of Queen Camilla with her new rescue puppy, Moley, described as 'mischievous' and 'much-loved.'
• Moley, a Jack Russell cross adopted from Battersea Dogs & Cats Home in February 2025, is the Queen's newest companion after the passing of her dog Beth in November 2024.
• The Queen will visit the RHS and BBC Radio 2 Dog Garden at the Chelsea Flower Show, where the names of her dogs—Beth, Bluebell, and Moley—are inscribed on the garden path.
• The Dog Garden, designed by Monty Don, features dog-friendly spaces and will be relocated to Battersea Dogs & Cats Home after the event.
• Camilla has been a patron of Battersea since 2016 and continues to highlight rescue dog adoption as part of her royal advocacy.
