hheldorfer Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 Loved it! I particularly like the way the Cairns of yesteryear were allowed to look more ruggedly natural than the more 'done up' versions today. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I attribute the "done up" look to the fact that the groomers must make a living!? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The hairstyles of the human officers in that article also seem to be following the rugged and natural look too! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ah.. Merrie Olde U.K... The land that modern hair conditioners forgot! I hadn't noticed the humans... Who notices people when there are cairns around? But I took a second look - and you are right, whits - especially the "poodle cut" on Dr. E. M. Luis, ?but I will refrain from further snarky comments!

Pepper Bug's Mom Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 Quote I watched "The Uninvited" today with Ray Millan and there was a Cairn Terrier in the movie named Bobby. So cute and not trimmed/thinned to the ying yang like the show dogs of today. His ears were nice and trimmed, but the body was shaggy and he was a face kisser!!!! So cute!!!!
