7 Anjing Terbodoh di Dunia

7. Pekingese
The Pekingese (left) are one of the most difficult dogs to train. They have a very independent and dominating nature that requires firmness and consistency. Although wary of strangers, they are very affectionate with their masters. The Pekingese are extremely brave for their size, and make surprisingly good watchdogs! Not recommended for young children.


 
6. Bloodhound
The Bloodhound (left) may not be the most intelligent of dogs, but what a nose! These dogs can track any scent, even a scent trail that is over one hundred hours old. The Bloodhound is extremely determined, and has an outstanding work ethic. They are gentle, affectionate, and great with kids. Training requires a firm hand and plenty of patience.


 
5. Borzoi (aka Russian Wolfhound)
The Borzoi (left) is a breed of dog that is surprisingly cat-like in its free thinking and independent nature. They keep themselves very clean, and aren’t as driven to please their masters as most dogs. This makes them a little bit harder to train, but they make up for this in their loyalty and affectionate nature with people they know well.


 
4. Chow Chow
Another dog who displays cat-like characteristics is the Chow Chow (right), most commonly kept as an indoor companion dog. They are extremely loyal to their family, and can be quite jealous of visitors to its master’s home. Chow Chows have a dominant nature and require a strong-willed owner and firm hand, or they will quickly take charge of the household! Again, this dog’s extreme stubbornness may be mistaken for a lack of intelligence.


 
3. Bulldog
Bulldogs (right) are well known for their extreme courage, dependability, and amazing guarding skills. Along with their menacing appearance, not many burglars would want to mess with a dog that is bred to guard, control, and bait bulls! Conversely, Bulldogs are also among the most gentle of breeds, who are very affectionate and gentle with children. Bulldogs are great family dogs that require a lot of human attention and affection to ensure their happiness.


 
2. Basenji
The Basenji (right) is most known for its unique bark, which can often sound like a human being laughing or crying. Some even refer to the Basenji as a “barkless” dog. They are another dog that display cat-like characteristics, often grooming themselves and/or staring out the window for hours a day! But if you live in an apartment or condominium and think a Basenji would be perfect for you, think again. Basenjis are a very active dog that require frequent walks or, at the very least, a spacious backyard. They can be a bit temperamental (A lot of human contact from the puppy stage helps with this) and harder to train than most dogs.


 
1. Afghan Hound
The Afghan Hound (left) is known by many as the “king of dogs”, and are one of the most ancient breeds. They are sweet, affectionate, and sensitive, with a low dominance level. But at the same time, they are quite noble and courageous when they need to be. Their low “obedience level” is well known among dog breeders and trainers. But like a few of the other breeds on this list, the Afghan Hound has many cat-like personality traits. So this begs the question: are Afghan Hounds really the least intelligent dog, or the most independent thinking? And with their sweet nature, does it really matter? We don’t think so!
