Re: Pangels in Wonderland

What did happen to the royal puppies, I wonder?

I suspect favored courtiers and/or military types and/or the younger generations of Hohenzollerns were given them - AW's kids, Ferdinand's kids, Madame Camas whom Fritz and his siblings venerated, young Adelaide Keyserlingk as a wedding present - those kind of accasions. And then later also the great nieces and nephews.

Fritz: There's still one puppy which needs a good home and above all a royal staff ready to care for it. Hm, whom to choose?
Podewils: Rather than sending your portrait to Vienna, maybe your majesty should consider presenting her Austrian majesty with a dog?
Fritz: NO.

Hahaha. Not after Biche got captured at Soor, nooo.

He should have presented Joseph with a puppy at Neisse, though. That would have been a nice touch.
