there are lots of dogs that are smart i think that mutts are smarter than full breds and i also think that toy dogs are hard to train

Poodles are supposed to be among the smartest dogs to train. Also labs and German shepards make good candidates. For example as seeing eye dogs or police K9's respectively. I would choose a lab because they are so friendly.

Doberman Pincer! I have 2 and breed them, they are great dogs. All look and bark, tame and very loyal to owner. They are puppies for about 2 years, but once trainned they are the smartest dogs.

Amongst the most trainable/smartest dogs in the world are Border Collies, Poodles and Labrador Retrievers. I have a Lab and he can sing, bow, high five, beg, roll over etc.

I have a schnoodle (toy poodle & miniature schnauzer mix) & he is brilliant. Only 7 months old & knows about 15 commands. The smaller version is probably too little to open the fridge, but definitely smart enough to.
