Papillon..
Loved ours we got from dog pound.
Jumped up and down all the time. But once jumped from a high bed and broke his back. Broke my heart.
Only way I'm getting another dog is if I find out I'm going to die in a set amount of time that would be shorter than a normal dog's life.
Had too many die on me.

Good point. I imagine this a real problem for animal shelters. I’d like to adopt a good mutt, but I don’t want any pit bull mix in my house.

I have a border collie and agree that they're really smart. But, they're a handful too...not much of a couch potato.

Beagles, and hounds in general, are plenty smart... they’re just stubborn and do what they want, especially when it comes to food or a scent. They’re willfully disobedient at times and know they’ve been bad when they disobey.

Labrador Retriever
I've met ONE that I consider to be very intelligent, but he's also had about $3000 of schooling. I know this because he was in my garbage one day and when I put him in the crosshairs I saw a tag on his collar so I decided to call his owner.
So yea he's smart but he's still a lab and they're all shitheads lol
ETA: 99 Rhodesian Ridgeback? They got robbed. And Catahoulas not even being listed makes the list incomplete. They'd be in one of the top groups.

Slide out bottom freezer is too hard for her to open, thank god.

You didn’t mention the corgi which is 11... 
A lot of people don’t realize it’s a herding dog as well. I had one and that was probably the smartest dog I’ve been around. He looked at you like he understood exactly what you would say.

I don't know why anyone would ever own a shitzhu.
Most worthless dog there is. doesn't listen and smells like shite b/c it gets wet every morning when it pees b/c of the long gross hair dragging in the morning dew grass. Little dog syndrome as well. I just don't understand their appeal.

I keep hearing about how border collies are too smart for their own good.
If you don’t keep them occupied, they’ll find a way to keep occupied. Like disassembling a porch one board at a time.
A normal border collie needs at least an hour or 2 of smart work per day. I have a McNab border collie and he doesn't require that work but has the brain of a border collie. My dog learned to spell 5 words

If poodles had not become the poster dog for aristocracy, and not considered to be a prissy dog by people, I'm convinced they'd be the most popular dogs in the country.
Fun Poodle facts: they aren't actually French, they are German. The word poodle comes from the German word for puddle, or pond. That goofy hair do they have in dog shows is based on a utilitarian hunting hair do. The hair around the chest was allowed to grow long to act as a floatation device of sorts and to help keep their heart and lungs warm. Conversly, the back end was shaved to help keep the top half afloat.
I have a miniature poodle and she will jump in a pond and swim around just for the fun of it. She is also smart as hell. I also have a shi tzu. While she is quite dumb, she is the happiest little thing in the world.

before she died, every time we left the house we had to bungie the fridge door closed to keep her out of it. That worked until she chewed thru the bungie
man I miss that dog

Smartest dog I’ve ever been around was a border collie.
As far as Shih Tzus, I don’t know. My folks have had two.
One was derp but the one they have now actually uses language. She has several distinct sounds she makes with each one being attached to what she wants them to do. Really smart dog.

If I could get my border collie to stop herding up neighborhood kids he would be the perfect dog.

Can confirm. Our little guy passed away last year at the impressive age of 18.
Little baw was the best dog, minus the shedding. He never met a stranger. He was loving but also independent - an underrated quality in my opinion. And damn was he smart, especially if motivated with food.
No food, and he would conveniently have no idea what you were talking about. Hell, a lot of times he’d pretend he didn’t even hear you. But as soon as you’d rustle a bag of potato chips, the pup could solve a Rubik’s cube.
It was heartbreaking watching his knees go. They suffer from faulty architecture.
