Smartest dog ranked 1-2
Some dogs are particularly intelligent and understand what their owners are saying. See if your dog is one of them.
1. Border Collie
This breed was used as a sheepdog in England.
It is already known for being an intelligent dog and has a level of intelligence similar to that of a child.
Because they are so intelligent, many people assume that they will listen to their owners without training,
but they are wrong. If you don’t train and educate them properly, they can pretend to be sick, threaten and attack their owners.
They’re also very active and have a lot of stamina because they used to be used as sheepdogs,
so you need to spend a lot of time walking and playing with them. However, with enough training and education,
they can be good companions that don’t bark much and listen to their owners.
2. poodle
This is a dog breed that originated in Germany and is often mentioned in the second place along with the Border Collie when we talk about the ranking of smart dogs.
It is easy for beginners to raise because it is basically gentle, and poodles shed very little, so many people with hair allergies tend to keep them.
However, their coat tends to get tangled easily, so owners need to regularly groom them. If you don’t take care of their coat,
their skin can become inflamed in the summer and they can look unkempt. The poodle’s characteristic coat also allows them to be styled in a variety of ways.
Despite their calm appearance, they were used as hunting dogs and are very active, so they need to be played with and walked frequently.
They are intelligent and easy to train as they understand their owner’s intentions. However, as with any intelligent breed,
they can become disrespectful and cause trouble for their owners if not trained correctly.
