Beauty is a relative concept, because each of us has his own view of things. What seems flawless for one is bad taste or even ugliness for another.
On Earth, there are a great many of the most beautiful dogs of various breeds: each is unique in its own way and each will find a fan. Even those dogs, which can hardly be called beautiful, have many "admirers."
20. Papillon
Papillons are considered the oldest breed of purebred small dogs. The name translated from French means “butterfly”, which is understandable: their large shaggy ears can be compared with the wings of a beautiful butterfly. The papillons were bred in the 17th century, and were first brought to Bologna as a gift to the French king Louis XIV. These cute little dogs are beautiful, smart and friendly, which is not typical for small breeds.
19. Pekingese
The Pekingese are also an ancient breed of dogs, but they were bred in China, which is logical to assume by their name. Earlier in China, such dogs lived only in imperial families and were inaccessible to ordinary people. They were considered holy "guardian spirits" and treated accordingly. This subsequently affected the character of the Pekingese: they require all-consuming attention and try to always be in the spotlight.
18. Japanese chin
This breed can not be described otherwise than as a miracle. Hins, with proper training, are able to talk, sing and meow. Many attribute to them descent from the cat family, and not without reason: dogs of this breed really love to behave like cats. The main characteristics of Japanese chins include kindness, calm and devotion. They get along easily with children.
17. American Cocker Spaniel
Many dog handlers consider this breed of dogs of American origin the smartest of all the decorative ones. Indeed, cocker spaniels are characterized by a special mind, quick wit and activity. You are unlikely to find a spaniel sleeping all day, occasionally flipping from side to side. They will always find something to do.
16. Welsh Corgi Pembroke
It’s hard to imagine that these miniature dogs, often called “royal dogs,” are actually shepherd’s. The breed was popularized in the 10th century and was used mainly for grazing. Their small stature helped deftly dodge the blows of hooves and horns. Speaking about the nature of the Welsh Corgi, it is worth noting their kindness and intelligence.
15. Beagle
Beagles have always been and still are considered one of the best hunting dog breeds. They have a wonderful sense of smell, which allows them to feel the prey per kilometer. Today, beagles are used to detect drugs, explosives and weapons, and it is on these dogs that companies test their cosmetic products. However, this breed is not suitable for training due to its too stubborn nature.
14. Cavalier King Charles Spaniel
This breed is very popular among English breeders. The British believe that such a dog can create comfort and coziness in the house. She is unpretentious in leaving, very affectionate, quiet, faithful. Cavalier King is considered the smallest breed of spaniels.
13. Pomeranian
Pomeranian Spitz looks very much like a German Spitz, but they differ in a more cotton-like stuffed wool, a short muzzle and a round body. “Pomeranians” are very active and require a lot of attention: if you do not play with them, do not engage in training, they become very moody and aggressive. In a good situation, the Spitz is very loving and devoted.
12. Poodle
The name of this breed in translation from German means "splashing in the water", and in translation from French - "duck". Poodles are the most common decorative and intelligent dog breed to date. They are active, well amenable to training. For this reason, poodles are used in circus performances more often than any other dogs.
11. Scottish Shepherd Shelter
It is widely believed that this breed is as old as the Shetland Islands, which are the birthplace of this breed. However, there is no actual evidence of this. In the Scottish climate, in connection with which cattle grazing was one of the main types of agriculture, this breed found its application in shepherding. Sheltie possess high intelligence, activity and kindness.
10. Longhaired Collie
To appreciate the grace and beauty of this dog, you must observe it in the process of grazing. There are no equal collies in this business: she is able to replace twenty people. Since ancient times, this dog helped shepherds monitor the herd and look for lost sheep. Due to the innate overabundance of energy, this dog just needs constant physical activity.
9. Bernese Shepherd Dog (Sennenhund)
This stately and respectable dog is also a shepherd. Bernese Shepherd originates from Switzerland, from the canton of Bern. She is very hardy, active and devoted. The Sennenhunds (as they are also called) are excellent guards, although they cannot be called aggressive. Such dogs even bark very rarely, only in case of emergency.
8. Australian Shepherd
The Australian Shepherd has a very rich history and complex origin: it is a descendant of about four dog breeds. The shepherd is extraordinarily beautiful. One of its features are blue eyes, which will not leave anyone indifferent. These beautiful dogs are very hard on captive life: even a huge apartment will be a prison for her.
7. Bobtail
It’s hard to imagine that such a dog can be an excellent shepherd and guard at the sight of this large “pile of wool”. Thick and long hair covers her almost the entire review. Bobtails are called family dogs: they are very calm and get along well with children.
6. Golden Retriever
The uniqueness of retrievers lies in the fact that they feel great both in water and on land. They are good bloodhounds and unsurpassed rescuers. This breed was bred in the 19th century in the UK. Golden retrievers are very smart. Many consider them also the kindest dogs of all existing breeds.
5. English Springer Spaniel
From the English spaniel went all the other varieties of spaniels. It is worth noting that for a significant period of time the spaniels were considered a single breed, and subsequently its subspecies were bred. The English springer spaniels are practically not prone to aggression, they are very kind and playful.
4. The Scottish Setter
As a typical hunting breed, setters require at least periodic physical exertion and a lot of space. Despite the fact that they are unpretentious, very hardy and able to adapt to almost any climate, these dogs require careful grooming, and in particular - regular combing of the coat.
3. Chow Chow
Chow Chow is the oldest of the dogs. Some references to them are about two thousand years old. They were bred by monks of Buddhist monasteries, where even the pedigrees of each dog were kept. All these "shaggy lions" have one interesting difference - the blue language. There is a legend that when God created the sky, the Chow Chow licked it, thereby coloring his tongue in blue.
2. Labrador Retriever
Labrador is considered to be the friendliest dog in the world, even the name of the breed is associated with the word "friend" for many. Labrador Retriever is a great guide, lifeguard, security guard, and just a dog. They get along well with other pets and children.
1. Tibetan mastiff
If we take into account the geographical isolation of Tibet, the thoroughbred of this breed cannot be disputed. Tibetan mastiffs are beautiful, strong, powerful, expensive dogs that can endure even the most difficult living conditions and harsh climate. They just need training. Otherwise, they become uncontrollable and dangerous.
1. Siberian Husky - the most beautiful dog in the world
Husky shares the first place in the list of the most beautiful dogs along with the Tibetan mastiff. Husky dogs were bred as sled dogs, but pretty quickly became decorative and exhibit due to their resemblance to wolves. They have beautiful thick hair, a limy tail and an unusual eye color. Freedom-loving temper often makes Husky run away from home. These dogs need a lot of attention, training and active walks.
There are many dog breeds in the world and each of them is beautiful. But if you ask any dog breeder on our planet, "What is the most beautiful dog?", Then he will answer without any doubt - "Mine!". And he will be right. After all, it is not the density of the fur, not the big "calf" eyes, not the cute faces that make our pets beautiful, but our love.
