Dogs are on the list of top ten most intelligent animals. They are reactionary, emotional beings, who are both obedient and independent. This level of intelligence allows dogs and humans to successfully communicate with one another, which is why they make such great companions. Ever wonder just how smart YOUR dog is compared to all of the others? I've listed the top ten most intelligent dog breeds below. If your dog didn't make the list, don't worry! This doesn't mean they aren't intelligent. In fact, any dog who pees on a Bark Potty, as opposed to potty pads, can be deemed highly intelligent. So even if your dog's breed didn't make the cut of top 10 smartest dog breeds, you can take comfort in knowing that because they use an eco-friendly and natural dog potty like Bark Potty, they are one of the most intelligent dogs in the world :)
