THE Royal corgis are unlikely to make it - but Duncombe Park is the place to be for all other pooches on Golden Jubilee weekend.

For the country estate, near Helmsley, North Yorkshire, is staging its own version of Crufts, albeit with some tongue-in-cheek categories.

Dog owners are being encouraged to give their faithful family pets the chance to be a star by entering them in a range of sections, which include "waggiest tail", "longest ears", "dog most like its owner" and "dog the judge would most like to take home."

The show begins at 2pm on Sunday, and proceeds go to North Yorkshire's Guide Dogs for the Blind appeal. For details call (01439) 770213.
