A pampered pup that reportedly has more than 50 outfits has been taken on a private London tour to celebrate King Charles III’s coronation.

The duo reportedly were quite the spectacle as Chilli traveled in a “royal carriage” to visit Big Ben, London Eye and Horse Guards Parade.

El-Saie developed a true bond with Chili after she “recognized his soul,” she told SWNS.

“When I first met Chilli, he made a beeline for me and put his little paws on my knees. He looked up at me and I knew we were meant to be,” the content creator from West London added.

“It was like I recognized his soul, there was something about him and his energy, the way he was [that] I understood — I spoke to him,” she continued.

“Chilli is a very anxious, reactive dog.”

Yasmin started sharing Chilli’s life on Facebook, where he immediately became a hit, gaining over 10,000 followers.

During the pandemic, El-Saie adopted Sukhi from a rescue center as a buddy for Chilli, said SWNS.

“Chilli is a very anxious, reactive dog,” noted El-Saie. “I had no idea that dogs could have mental health issues, too.”

She added, “I had to start understanding what he is experiencing and what I am doing wrong,” noting that while she wanted a canine friend for Chilli, the new addition would have to have “the opposite temperament to him.”

She also said, “I was looking for a girl with sweet, loving and caring energy.”

As for adding Sukhi to the family, she said, “She has turned out to be a massive blessing.” She said the dogs have a special bond.

She also said, “I don’t know the figure but I know it is a lot. I don’t have kids, so for me, they are like my children. I am their guardian. They go their whole lives and only know us – we are their everything.”
