Etymology
There are plenty of arguments over how dog intelligence is measured, so actually pinpointing what counts as a "smart" dog is hard, but there are many ways to determine what fits and what doesn't.Some smart dogs are Poodles, Collies and Retrievers. Shibas and Akitas are also very smart, as are Shetland Sheep Dogs. The difference between each dog will vary, but generally smart dogs will be much harder to train due to their stubbornness.Just remember that they are still dogs and respond on some level to the same basic stimuli most of the time.The kind of dog you choose doesn't have to be a reflection on your personality, but it should be a good match to your lifestyle and the resources you and your family have to take care of the new little guy.
