I don't know, I think all dogs are pretty smart.
But in general, I love Golden Retrievers.

I think they may be one of the smartest type of dogs because they are used as service dogs and are THE most highly used dogs for blindness aids, service dogs, etc. They can learn a lot of things, and they are so friendly.

I have a Golden named Ginger. She's the best dog I've ever had! lol

You will get a different answer from everyone. It all depends on what your personal opinion is. I would have to go with the American Pit Bull Terrier though. (Any type of terrier is generally rather intelligent) Though this breed inparticular have been used from everything to Rescue dogs, therapy dogs, and police dogs just to pets. They truely are an amazing ,intelligent and loving breed with a fantastic temperment.

Yeah, I hear ya. My best buddy offered a "bugg" (boston terrier pug) from a breeder, so I would desire to form of watch what I say round her. I do admit that on the time i did not rather understand how undesirable a breeder that individual became into, so i did not tell her on the time she became into finding and that makes me experience like a hypocrite now if I do say something...besides..My cousin's fiancee has a huskie b!tc# he desires to reproduce and each time I hear approximately it I would desire to declare something. i won't keep my mouth close and that i'd desire to lecture the the two one in all them approximately in charge breeding and dogs overpopulation; i'm hoping sooner or later it is going to sink in. I additionally seek for the thank you to boost the priority of dogs food because of the fact they're feeding Beneful...ugh. It makes me so unhappy and a splash mad. With the marvel collar, my dad had to get one for one in all our rescue canines yet mom and that i refused to enable him. i don't recognize what the deal is with an electric powered marvel seeming greater humane than spritzing with water. Frankly i'd have accomplished the comparable element with that wannabe breeder. Such finished lack of understanding and disrespect for dwelling issues is stressful to tolerate.

the american kennel club web site has a good listing of characteristics of different dogs, depending on what you want. Sometimes having an extra smart dog can mean more work for you, because they need to be kept busy busy busy or they will find ways to be busy busy busy.

This would be a hard question to answer, but I would say that the Jack Russell Terrier, though a total spitfire, has some problem solving skills.

This is an impossible question to answer, even "in general." Different breeds are more intelligent in certain areas, but no one surpasses another.
