here’s the list: http://petrix.com/dogint/1-10.html

1 Border Collie
2 Poodle
3 German Shepherd
4 Golden Retriever
5 Doberman Pinscher
6 Shetland Sheepdog
7 Labrador Retriever
8 Papillon

Number seven on the top ten smartest dogs isn’t too shabby.

now, compare the above top ten smart dogs with the below top ten popular dogs...

* 1. Labrador Retriever*
* 2. German Shepherd Dog
* 3. Yorkshire Terrier
* 4. Golden Retriever
* 5. Beagle
* 6. Boxer
* 7. Bulldog
* 8. Dachshund
* 9. Poodle

Make a list of mutually inclusive breeds:

1. Labrador retriever
2. Golden retriever
3. German shepherd
4. poodle

These 4 are your best dogs in the world, imo.
