Sharp The Collie
We told you Queen Victoria loved dogs and we weren’t joking. in the late 1860s and 1870s, she became fond of smooth haired Collies. She owned at least 88 in her lifetime. Have you owned 88 of anything in your life? Out of all the Collies, she did happen to have one favorite. His name was Sharp.
You see Sharp in this image and actually, this photo was a ‘carte-de-visite’ which was published almost everywhere and sold to the citizens like a postcard. The Queen wrote in her journal, “I was photographed alone with my faithful Sharp.”
