A 'PAW-PULAR' dog show at Dumfries House is now open for entries - with the event now less than a week away.

Always a memorable day, the contest will see pups and their humans battling it out to see who will be crowned top dog.

The annual event gives local pooches the opportunity to compete for a series of prizes and lighthearted titles including Best Sausage Catcher, Waggiest Tail, Best Trick, Cutest Puppy and Best Rescue Dog.

This year's event will take place on Wednesday, August 16 from 10am until 1pm.

The annual show always aims to support a local charity, with Ayrshire Drone Dog Rescue (ADDR) set to benefit this time around.

Those looking to take part in the family-friendly event can register at the estate’s Visitor Centre from now until 5pm on Tuesday, August 15.

Those under the age of 10 will also have the opportunity to show off their training skills in a bid to be crowned Best Young Handler.

Spectators are encouraged to come along and cheer on the competitors.

Entry for the competitions is £2.
