The Cairn Terrier, originally from Scotland, achieved iconic status due to its unique appearance—dense fur, pointed ears, and a sweet yet slightly fox-like expression. Following the Cairn Terrier on the list are the West Highland White Terrier and the Border Collie.
Researchers explain that the closer a dog's score is to 100%, the closer its facial proportions align with the mathematical definition of "perfect beauty."
