Perhaps they should let her vote...
An Austrian border collie called, for our purposes, "Betsy" (not her real name; she even uses a pseudonym!) is apparently the smartest border collie in the world.
When I lived in a parsonage, for some reason I never got a dog, although I had several opportunities. The two dogs I had when I was in high school and college were both shelties (Shetland sheepdogs)- a breed which, as the list linked to above indicates, are themselves no slouches in the canine brains department. But before I die, I'd like to have one border collie- even if it's one with a less extensive vocabulary than "Betsy's."
Of course, mine would have to speak English.
