Flo Rutland the Yorkie Poo Makes Royal Visit to New Neighbours.

Oakham's beloved Yorkie Poo, Flo, made a royally exciting visit today to greet her new, albeit rather stoic, neighbours - a brand new statue depicting the Queen and her corgis. The statue, which has already become a popular landmark, stands proudly in the heart of Oakham.

Flo, known for her friendly and inquisitive nature, couldn't wait to introduce herself to the Queen and her furry companions. Her tail wagging , while Flo tilted her head, ears perked, at the corgis' permanent bronze smiles.

Martin Brookes, captured the heart warming encounter on camera. "Flo is always so interested in meeting new people and animals," Martin Brookes said, "and while I don't think the corgis will be returning the favour any time soon, she seems quite taken with them nonetheless!"

The statue, commissioned by the Lord Lieutenant of Rutland, has been met with positive reactions from residents. Many have commented on the lifelike depiction of the Queen and her corgis, with some even suggesting it has brought a newfound regal air to Oakham.

Flo's visit today has added a touch of heart warming whimsy to the newly installed statue. Perhaps this is the start of a beautiful, albeit unconventional, friendship between a local pup and the Queen's unwavering corgi companions.
