9. Dogs can be pretty smart
Some people think that dogs are not very smart, but they actually are. In fact, according to the American Psychological Association, some dogs are as smart as child that is two years old. Perhaps predictably, a border collie may be one of the smartest canines, capable of understanding about 200 words. Other top intelligent breeds are poodles, golden retrievers, German shepherds and Dobermans.
The reality is that dogs are just pretty amazing in a lot of ways. More amazing facts are being discovered all the time. If you’ve got a dog, praise him or her for her amazingness and enjoy the unconditional love that you receive in return.
