The meteor was, according to NASA, about 2 feet across and weighed 1000 pounds. So their baby elephants are on the lighter side and their corgis are fairly normal size.
I’m going to assume a sphere, 60 centimeters in diameter, and a weight of 450 kg.
Volume of the sphere is 113000cm3, which gives us a density of 3,9g/cm3. That’s heavier than most rocks (silicon at 2.3), but much lighter than iron (7.9).
And how malnourished the baby elephants are. I mean, there are 4 of them, that’s a big litter for an elephant. Perhaps they aren’t all suckling as much as is normal because the mother elephant isn’t producing enough milk for 4. Maybe the mother elephant is sickly, after such a difficult birth. God, what if she even died?! The poor things will starve!
Had to check that it’s actually plausible.
Assuming a corgi is 0.4m long, 0.3m tall and 0.2m wide and that a baby elephant weighs 120kg that gives the meteor a density of 20000kg/m³.
There are only a few elements denser than that, but it’s possible.

Wouldn’t it just be iron?
iron and iridium, and nickel probably.
Possibly, astrophysics is usually about order of magnitude and while iron is only 8000kg/m³ it’s within error margins.
And of course, it depends on how chubby the corgi is.

Considering elephants birth one at a time after like 18 months…
I assumed a very rectangular shape.
Assume a rectangular corgi.
A spherical corgi is just a corgi, so that really just complicates it.
