We tell Bess that labs are supposed to be intelligent and refined, but she just won't listen when she's devouring a tasty kitty poo or rolling delightedly on a stinky animal carcass! Woolie, however, had delusions of grandeur...he was expecting pugs to be top of the list of the brightest breeds. Nevertheless we suspect pugs are number 11...or perhaps not...
Without further ado (drumroll please!) we are thrilled to announce the smartest canine breeds!
