King Charles Launches New Royal Product Made at Balmoral — And the Late Queen Would've Loved It

King Charles has upheld his late mother Queen Elizabeth's legacy of discipline and loyalty to the Crown. As he inherited her many royal residences, he launched his own entrepreneurial ventures at some of these homes, which are open to visitors. On August 1, Charles launched a new line of Royal Dog Treats at Balmoral Castle, an idea that would’ve 'paw'sitively pleased his late mother. The Queen was known for her unwavering love of her four-legged companions and for serving as patron to several animal welfare charities.

As reported by Town & Country magazine, Balmoral Castle, the royals’ official summer residence in Scotland, teased the launch of the treats for one's 'four-legged prince or princess.' The treats are described as '100% natural biscuits,' shaped like little bones and made with wholemeal flour, egg, and chicken stock. All of the treats are hand-baked in small batches in the kitchens. A 75-gram bag costs $6.70, and they can be shipped worldwide either via Royal Mail within the United Kingdom or via DHL for international orders.
Charles's thoughtful business venture would’ve surely earned the approval of his late mother. Queen Elizabeth famously owned around 30 corgis during her 70-year reign. She received her first pooch, Dookie, at age seven in 1933, with many of her later four-legged companions being direct descendants of her first breeding pair. At times, she was seen walking with a pack of up to 13 corgis, personally feeding and caring for them. As per Vanity Fair, she once famously said, "My corgis are my family." The late Prince Philip fondly referred to her daily walks with them as her 'dog mechanism.'

The Queen was also the patron of several animal welfare charities. Following her passing, the London-based animal nonprofit The Kennel Club remembered her as "one of the most dog-loving monarchs in history." She served as patron of Dogs Trust from 1990 until her death in 2022, and of the Animal Health Trust from 1969 to 2016. Additionally, she supported a range of agricultural, veterinary, and conservation groups, including the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons, the Rare Breeds Survival Trust, and the Highland Cattle Society.
As part of Charles’s savvy business venture, Balmoral Castle also offers a collection of pet accessories, available for purchase online. The range includes a tweed pet collar, treat bag, and leash, as well as a dog bowl featuring the royal coat of arms. Charles and Queen Camilla own three dogs, Snuff, Moley, and Bluebell. They also had a Jack Russell Terrier named Beth, who was sadly put down in November 2024 after developing an untreatable tumor. According to PEOPLE, Highgrove Gardens honored Beth with a special Christmas ornament, a Jack Russell figurine wearing a red bandana and crown, placed on the royal family’s tree.
