I wouldn't worry too much about what breed you get. All breeds are intelligent (or stupid, 8) ) Pick the breed you have an inclination toward and then try to find a strain that is working well on the game you intend to hunt. As long as you're happy with what you have then all is well. The only person a dog has to satisfy is the one that is buying the food.
