A newly updated edition of royal biographer Prince Andrew Andrew Lownie’s book Entitled: The Rise and Fall of the House of York contains allegations that Prince Andrew violently kicked one of his Labradors during a pheasant shoot at Sandringham after the dog grabbed a sausage roll from a guest. According to the account, the dog snatched the food from the guest’s hand, prompting laughter from those nearby before Andrew allegedly reacted by kicking the animal in the head hard enough to leave it whimpering on the ground. The guest reportedly confronted Andrew over what was described as “disgusting” behavior toward the dog, which allegedly triggered an angry response from Andrew insisting the dogs belonged to him and that he could treat them however he wanted.


The story quickly became part of the wider portrait being painted of Andrew in the updated biography, which depicts him as increasingly isolated, bitter, entitled, and detached from public reality following years of scandal surrounding his association with Jeffrey Epstein. The book claims that several people present sided with the guest who challenged Andrew, and even alleges that Prince Philip later privately told the guest that both he and Queen Elizabeth agreed Andrew “needed a good scolding from time to time.” The allegations arrive as Andrew remains deeply toxic to the monarchy’s public image, with Buckingham Palace continuing to distance itself from him following the collapse of his royal standing and ongoing scrutiny surrounding his past behavior and personal associations.
