Your family dog may be smarter than your toddler
By Doug Gross
CNN
(CNN) -- Your dog may not actually be smarter than somebody's honor student -- popular bumper stickers aside. But your canine companion might well be smarter than their toddler, according to a growing body of research on how dogs think.
My brother is certainly not a toddler but I'd be willing to bet a well trained Wolfhound could give him a run for his money. Just sayin :bang:
Top Five
1. Border collies
2. Poodles
3. German shepherds
4. Golden retrievers
5. Doberman pinchers
Bottom Five
106. Borzoi
107. Chow chow
108. Bulldog
109. Basenji
110. Afghan hound

I was surprised by the Afghan hound being on the list. After all they are capable of knitting afghans. :crazy:
