IT’S A DOG'S LIFE

"The multibillion fortune of New York’s “Queen of Mean” could be going to the dogs. A newly disclosed document shows that the hotel tycoon Leona Helmsley left instructions before her death last year at the age of 87 that almost all of her huge estate should go to the care of dogs. The bequest could provide a windfall of up to $8 billion (£4 billion) for animal care charities." (Times, 3 July) RD
