chucky234: Bingo is Basenji and not mongrel.Bingo is NOT Basenji. The Basenji, also known as the voiceless dog because they can't bark, is native to Southern Africa. Bingo isn't Mongrel either. Bingo is simply known as the Native West African dog because like canuck has mentioned, they are so mixed that their breed is not recognised internationally 1 Like |

Amefrica: :/ Where's Great Dane and Bull MastiffThose dumb/slow dogs, I thought you'd even call the Irish Setter- now thats a Smarter Dog. The great dane is just big for nothing to me, its not known for aggression, its not a sharp learner, its a really slow dog(its size does'nt help issues). The Bull Mastiff has a tendency to be very Lazy no matter how active its master is, its just in its genes. |

Even ekuke get grade, had one alongside a German shepherd. That dog was a pain in the neck, it leaves the job of barking at night to the German Shepherd, it only barks in the morning whenever the woman who sells okpa (Bambara nut) blows her horn when she is passing by. You will hear my ekuke barking aggressively and the woman who had noticed that, provokes it further by standing extra minutes outside my gate blowing her horn. Can bark like there is no tomorrow whenever it believes in its mind that spirits are around. It past time is chasing the chicks we have in the property for fun but when the mother hen appears it changes direction. We finally gave it ou 2 Likes |

Yea,I can relate with the alsatian and rottweiler's level of intelligence and I agree that the alsatian is more intelligent than the rott. I noticed it while training one of my dogs way back. The dog was a mix of alsatian and rottweiler. It didn't respond to commands as fast as the pure alsatians responded to commands when I was training them. Secondly,it was always lagging behind when it had to do mental work. For example,the alsatians were always the first to bark and alert me when power has been restored,water tank gets full,family member knocks at the gate or doorbell/intercom at the gate rings. Ordinarily,I would have thought that a mix of both breeds would make it more intelligent but I was wrong. The intelligence of the alsatian cannot be overlooked and it will always make it,a very popular breed even in years to come. I noticed a lot of people are going for boer bulls these days cos of the size and intimidating looks but in terms of security,intellect should be placed far above looks. My alsatians then,were so alert that they could pick up faintest of sounds from over 120 ft. I say this cos d property was built on a plot measuring 120 x 60 feet and usually,we come out in the evening to relax and take fresh air and we put our seats close to the wall,at the back of the house and the dogs seat by our side. All of a sudden,their ears will stand up firm and alert,they'd look at themselves and run very fast(like they're chasing someone),towards the gate. When they get there,they bark and their barks,would tell you if it's a family member or a visitor that's at the gate. The bark for a family member is quiet and calm and you can count it. One bark per time,in a mild tone. If it's a stranger,it's usually fast,loud,agrresive and continuous. You'd even hear them jumping on the gate(trying to force their way out to attack/chase the intruder). 4 Likes |

hornipipe: Seriously the german shepherd should be number one, they are unbelievably intelligent and sly.naaaaaaaaah the Collie deserves its position as top ranking intelligent dog, even I wont dispute it. Have you noticed most Hollywood movie dogs are Collies? In Dog shows I've seen, Collies do the intelligent stunts. To me Collies are easily trained, because of their high intelligence, basically if you are blind, you can depend on a collie to maybe even errrrm drive. But my ish with the list is wasting two slots on Retreiver breeds, i.e Labrador and Golden- I mean Retreivers in general are very intelligent, I still fink a Setter or Cocker Spaniel should have been somewhere at no 9 or 8. |

Maybe the German and the Labrador for me. The toy dogs for wifey and the kids if they want. |

You'll know what I'm talking about, the Collie is a naturally inquinsitive dog that always wants to learn, its a very smart dog but does'nt even look as smart and the most Agile of the two. A Blind person can totally rely on a Collie. |
