A few years ago, a study of all of the breeds of dogs showed that the border collie is the smartest breed. These dogs were developed on the border between England and Scotland and are phenomenal herders. According to the Border Collie Museum, "The border collie controls the sheep with 'eye' which has a distinct meaning, referring to the amount of concentration on the sheep that the dog shows. The sheep are 'held' by the strength of the dog's eye and a dog in which this characteristic is well developed is called 'strong-eyed.' "
