yes you can !! but if you're talking about their appearance, i think it'd be better if you specify it.

his/her/the dog's face is nice.

if you don't, people will think that you're talking about their behavior/personality ^^

@yoankcj it's not wrong to use it, but it would sound more natural to use "cute" or "pretty"

this cat is pretty !
this cat is cute !

but again it's not wrong to use beautiful, i would use beautiful to talk about their fur, eyes etc ^^
