A dorgi is a dog which is a cross between a dachshund and a Welsh corgi.
This hybrid started when one of Queen Elizabeth's corgis mated with a dachshund, Pipkin, belonging to Princess Margaret.
Dorgi's have short coat in a variety of colours ranging from gold to brown to black.
Both the corgi and the dachshund have a long back and so there is a potential for structural problems. Health issues may include patella luxation, hip dysplasia and Legg–Calvé–Perthes disease.
