INTELLIGENCE OF DOGS - The ranking by breed
I laughed while I searched this list for where my Mastiff ranks. 72 out of 79. So I figure anything above that is going to seem like a genius to me! I don't care what that list says. My Mastiff is smart and more than that she is intuitive! She seems to know what we are feeling and responds to that more than she does commands. I'd take that over a dog who can do tricks anyway! That's what makes her our family member and not just our dog.
