Six-year-old Freddie Osborne is the youngest entrant in this year's Crufts at the NEC and along with his smooth fox terrier Penny will be competing against adults on Thursday afternoon (March 6).

Freddie has been given the day off from Corbett Primary School, Bobbington, such is the magnitude of his achievement qualifying for the world-famous event.
