Top 10 Smartest Dog Breeds In The World

Dogs are largely thought to be one of the most intelligent species of animals, right up there with chimpanzees, elephants and dolphins.

But when you get down to the nitty-gritty of it and start observing dogs based on their behavior, responsiveness and trainability, some pooches move to the head of the class.

If you're looking for the best and the brightest (and cutest, in our opinion), these 10 breeds rank among the smartest dogs in the world.

10. Australian cattle dog

Yes, the Australian cattle dog from Down Under.

A working dog that is traditionally occupied with controlling and herding cattle, its qualities are exceptional intelligence, alertness, resourcefulness and a fiercely protective loyalty over its property and people.

They are agile, strong, active dogs, both physically and mentally, which revel in new experiences. The flip side is that they bore easily and will unintentionally find trouble while looking for activities to occupy themselves with.

The cattle dog is very organized; many are known for putting their own toys away after playing.

At 19-inches tall and 30 to 60 pounds, they aren't huge dogs, but they're not the best choice unless you have plenty of wide-open spaces.

  1. PEOPLE AROUND THE WORLD GET BLESSED AFTER CONTACTING ME BE WISE WITH YOUR DECISIONS
    I Am Gloria Cordonna from Atlanta ,My husband and I have been married for about 7 yrs now. We were happily married with two kids, a boy and a girl. 3 months ago, I started to notice some strange behavior from him and a few weeks later I found out that my husband is seeing someone. He started coming home late from work, he hardly care about me or the kids anymore, Sometimes he goes out and doesn’t even come back home for about 2-3 days. I did all I could to rectify this problem but all to no avail. I became very worried and needed help. As I was browsing through the Facebook one day, I came across a comment that suggested that Dr. AILEMEN SPELL CASTER can help solve marital problems, restore broken relationships and so on. So, I felt I should give him a try. I contacted him and he did a spell for me. Three days later, my husband came to me and apologized for the wrongs he did and promise never to do it again. Ever since then, everything has returned back to normal. I and my family are living together happily again.. All thanks to Dr. AILEMEN SPELL CASTER If you need a spell caster that can cast a spell that truly works, I suggest you contact him. He will not disappoint you.
