60. Akita Inu

The Akita Inu breed is known for being quite stubborn at times. In fact, some people compare life with them as trying to reason with a toddler. They have a tendency to want to assert their dominance. Sometimes, they’ll even grumble under their breath while being told off. This level of emotional intelligence makes them smart but will need more consistent training than other breeds.

59. Rhodesian Ridgeback

Rhodesian Ridgebacks are known for being immaculately strong and powerful dogs, so much so that they once were used for lion hunting. These strong dogs love being outside and running around, but have also adapted to home life. These dogs are fairly intelligent but need to be trained with positive reinforcement and gentleness in order to learn new commands.
