Answer 2

What are you asking? Which is the smartest of the breeds? If so I think that mixed breed dogs tend to be smarter and more stable. That said I own a Greyhound and I think that his temperament and personality are among the best I have ever seen he is a wonderful dog. I would suggest that you find some breeds that you like and then research. There are rescue groups out there for almost every breed. I highly recommend using them.

Answer 3

Top 10 intelligent breeds:
1 Border Collie
2 Poodle
3 German Shepherd
4 Golden Retriever
5 Doberman Pinscher
6 Shetland Sheepdog
7 Labrador Retriever
8 Papillon
9 Rottweiler
10 Australian Cattle Dog

Remember intelligence doesn't mean easy to train. Different breeds have different temperaments and different training methods work better. I remember someone saying once "you tell a border collie, but you ask a papillon" in regards to training.

Answer 4

There isn't one specific smart dog over the others. Some are quick learners and some are ones eager to please their owner that they try hard to do what they are told or asked to.
The best known breeds for obedience are german shepards and one of the quickest learners and seeming smartest are the border collie. Then again, I have both these breeds and they have shown that to be true. They live up to those traits.

Answer 5

It is certainly not limited to one breed, a Labrador in a large breed, a Boston Terrier or Schnauzer in the med breed, a Fiest or Jack Russell in the small breed. There are lots of smart breeds it is all about finding the right size for your home living situation. Like the Labrador is really meant for wide open spaces to roam, where a smaller breed would be perfect for apartment or small areas with no yard. Do a little research. Here is a site..

Answer 6

Intelligence rankings usually is measure of a dogs trainability and their desire to please humans because of how intelligence is determine breeds that are independent by nature and problem solve on their own tend to to score low in these intelligence ratings.

For example a greyhound will score very low he was bred to be an independent hunter, find the game, catch it - the precessing of catching require a great skill inorder to complete the task before it expends all it's energy, so it needs to read the prey movements to know what direction it wil bolt, when it will veer and turn so as to be in the right peosition for the catch , kill it and return with it. The Waterloo Cup which ended a couple years ago because of the use of live hares was the true test and measure of a greyhounds thinking ability, in effect it has the same thinking and calculating ability as a border collie but because it was bred to work alone it sees no purpose in following commands it is self serving not man serving so is not as trainable as the border collie despite the fact it has the same thinking/calculating abilty of a border collie, it is not as food motivated either, it will look at you like you are stupid if you want it to this and that all for a tiny little treat and simply walk off and go lay down, In it's view it is not worth the effort, when he can go out and catch his own treat which will be much more fun and rewarding to him as a result the greyhound also able to use reason and logic far more so than other dogs do.

The retriever may flush out game where the hunter tells it to , and then retrievers after the kill, because it needs to follow commands to do its jobs it ranks higher, but it is not capable of doing the complete on it's own as it does not have the ability to calculate what direction of move a animal is going to move to be able to catch it, so it does not have the same ability as the greyhound to think and calculate but it is more trainable as a result scores higher based on what certain people view as a measure of intelligence.

having brought in and owned and foster greyhounds right from the track it is amazing to see them become housetrained in a day or 2 and watched them figure out how they are supposed to behave inside a house just by observing other dogs in the household, most breeds adult dogs if having never been in home before would take a month of training to get to the same point that a greyhound can figure out on their own in just days.

I owned coonhound that could pick on training at an amazing rate, he knew all his commands in 2 languages, in sign and even spelled out, he even grasped on counting to 10 whether through counting by barking or retrieving a certain number of items, later had to shepherds one was highly trainable but certain things like the counting he could not grasp, the other took a while even to learn simple commands, Yet according to intelligence ratings a coonhound is rated far lower than a shepherd. Other thing is even 2 dogs of the same breed will vary in trainabilty/intelligence

If intelligence was measured with less emphasis on trainability and focused more on an animal ability to use logic, reasoning and well as calculating and problem solving the list of dogs ranked as intelligent would change drastically

Answer 7

According to all the lists I researched on the Internet, the smartest dog is the Border Collie and the second smartest is the Poodle.

Answer 8

Many dogs are smart. There is not smartest or dumbest. But the smarter dogs are the poodle, yorkie, lab, border collie, and the silky terrier.

Answer 9

All dogs are brilliant, some just aren't as motivated by food, or motivated by people/to please...anything in the herding or retreiver groups are often people oriented, which makes them easy to train.

Border Collies are thought to be the smartest dog, but really, they are really people oriented, and know exactly what you want...of course they are intelligent, too...
