“Grr, Yap, Snarl!”

Animal-welfare groups believe the fortune Leona Helmsley left to the Leona M. and Harry B. Helmsley Charitable Trust should go largely to the dogs. The groups have gone to court on behalf of the four-legged beneficiaries.

The Helmsley trustees disagree. See their statement.

Cheer up, pups! At least prospects for canine inheritance are looking up in Connecticut. H/T to the Wills, Trusts and Estates Prof for news that the state has enacted a pet trust statute.
