Afterglow Miami Ink the American Cocker Spaniel has been crowned Best In Show at this year's Crufts in England.

CRUFTS dog show started yesterday amid claims pedigree breeders are “creating a Frankenstein’s monster of a dog”.

BOTH four and two-legged Crufts hopefuls were immersed in last-minute preparations for the controversial contest.

IT is not quite the deck on the Starship Enterprise, but the future is on display in Dublin for the next week, from the virtual home to mirrors that help monitor your health.
