The Queen’s Corgi
Rex is the Queen’s favourite corgi and lives with his three other corgi companions a life of luxury at the Buckingham Palace. On a visit made by President Donald Trump with his wife Melania Trump and their own dog Mitzi, the Queen suggests that perhaps one of her corgis might prove to be a suitable mate for Mitzi, who chooses Rex, who is not pleased at all at the prospect of marrying Mitzi. After Rex evades her multiple times, Mitzi eventually chases him into the dining hall where he accidentally bites the president, deeply angering the Queen.
Rex, feeling ashamed of having embarrassed the Queen, is consoled by Charlie, another of the Queen’s corgis who is secretly jealous of Rex’s position. Luring him outside the palace with the false promise that the pope in the Vatican is looking for dogs, Charlie disposes Rex’s collar and Rex leaves the palace, Charlie then leads Rex into a river with the intention of drowning him.
Rex is then saved by a man who takes him to an animal shelter. There, Rex’s mannerisms at first alienate him from the other dogs, but after some time he soon makes friends and also falls in love with Wanda, a fellow inmate. Initially wary of Rex, she soon also develops feelings for him. This raises the ire of Tyson, a former fighting dog, who also has feelings for Wanda and runs the kennel. Rex eventually convinces the other dogs to join forces against Tyson and together they manage to overwhelm him.
Alongside his new friends and Wanda, Rex returns to the palace; however, the guards do not recognize him and throw him out of the palace as Charlie has managed to convince the Queen that Rex was killed by foxes. Still, with the help of his friends, Rex sneaks inside the palace where everybody tries to prevent Charlie from becoming top dog. However, Charlie manages to trap Rex and Wanda inside a fire. With help from Rex, Wanda manages to escape the fire, and rallies her friends in time to save Rex from the fire.
The Queen, alerted by the ruckus, is overjoyed when she finds Rex alive and well, and is about to return the honour of being the Top Dog to him. However, Rex refuses as he values his love for Wanda more than his position of Top Dog. Thus, he leaves the position to Charlie, who, as a result of becoming Top Dog, is forced to marry Mitzi and move to America while Rex continues to live at the palace with his new friends.
