Beauty standards are often perceived as subjective—what one person might like wouldn't necessarily appeal to another. But many of us would likely agree that, over the years, Disney has built a new way to appreciate beautiful things and presented an idea of cuteness in animal sidekicks (after all, they were the sign for most true Disney princesses). Granted, Disney cuteness is not for everyone, yet it has become synonymous with the word "cute."
Of course, it's a far cry from a realistic depiction, with wide eyes and innocent gazes, but that makes it all the more spectacular when such features resurface and the aspects of this standard come to life. That's exactly the case with a wonderful dog from England who has enchanted the internet.
Cocker spaniel Mabel became an internet sensation for her impossibly long eyelashes

Mabel, the magnificent chocolate cocker spaniel, lives with her owner Caitlin Baker in Warwickshire, England. The spaniel is one year old, quite young even by doggy standards, but she can already aim for a spot in the unofficial Disney hall of fame—all because of luxurious and lush eyelashes that are completely natural (and yes, they likely have made many green with envy).

Mabel's owner decided to show off her dog's beauty and posted a delightful video on TikTok. In it, the now-famous spaniel displayed her eyelashes for all to see, and internauts fell head over heels for the puppy.
Due to her looks, people likened Mabel to a Disney character

With her superb lashes, Mabel truly looks like a Disney character that just stepped out of the silver screen. Cocker spaniels in general look adorable, and they are more likely to sport long eyelashes. So, Mabel's cuteness can be attributed both to her personal traits, and the attributes of her breed—a perfect mix to present the world with a real-life animated character.
