Her natural expression is quite literally the definition of ‘puppy dog eyes’ and there’s no doubt that a flutter of those big, innocent lashes means she can get away with anything.
Mabel’s owner, Caitlin Baker, is actually an eyelash technician.The 20-year-old said she fell head over heels in love with the canine when she first saw her spectacular lashes.
‘When we first saw her we fell in love with her and then noticed her lashes and instantly loved her even more.
‘People think she’s amazing and often say she looks like Cindy Lou from The Grinch, which is my favourite Christmas movie.’ Cindy Lou in the hit film was played by actress Taylor Momsen, who actually needed lash extensions to achieve the fluttery look. Mabel, on the other hand, is blessed with natural ones.Why do they do that? When dogs kick after going to the bathroom, they are using the scent glands on their paws to further mark their territory.
It’s safe to say we could happily gaze into the pooch’s eyes all day.
