I found this article on the Yahoo! homepage yesterday and when I first read it it pissed me off but I didn't think much of it. I tried to sleep last night but I couldn't shake the feeling of anger. TEN SMARTEST DOGS?? This is straight discrimination and here's why:
1. They only consider purebred dogs. Hello? This is a dog world littered with idiots because they've been mated with their family. Yeah, you can find a breeder that knows all the different families but more often than not, the incest leads to dumb dogs.
2. PetMD. Who is PetMD and why does he/she think they are the authority on another species? They aren't even dogs!
3. Herding dogs. This is what they're meant to do. Sure, I can follow the instructions of any human, but I CHOOSE not to, bitches.
4. Border Collie favortism. This all came about with Lassie. It has nothing to do with the breed, it has to do with that old skool series that made Americans fall in love with that dog. In fact, the only toy dog even recognized was the Papillion - have you ever met a Papillion that didn't bark at you from 20 feet away? 'Nuf said.
Mr./Ms. PetMD, you are on my shit list.
