There are a great deal of theories with regards to the intelligence of the dog. The majority of dog owners recognise that their dogs are very bright: these owners can relate whatever number of stories that demonstrate the animal's tall intelligence. In addition to the clever ways in which dogs outwit their owners , canine intelligence shines when dogs are asked to do the tasks for which they were bred. For instance , the Border Collie is exceptionally hasty to learn how to litter a litter of sheep , and merely jeopardy appearing silly when you crave him to perfume out a bird. The bird dog
who finds the bird naturally , without training , is labelled extremely intelligent. Yet this same genius volition see dumb , and probably attain trampled , if allowed to mingle with a litter of sheep.

Motivation is a big section of intelligence. One dog owner scheduled an situation to possess her dog evaluated after a discussion with her friend. The dog owner and her friend were satisfied that the dog had a learning inability because the friend's Labrador Retriever could unsophisticated doors with his nose and paw , whereas the other dog would merely sit in front of the door and wait for a person to unsophisticated it. The idea never occurred to this person that the dog didn't lack to go through the door all that badly or that he was clever sufficient to wait for her to unsophisticated it instead of expending efficacy.

Another client who owned and trained Border Collies labelled one of her dogs retarded because the dog did not appear to grasp the concept of retrieving as quickly as her other Border Collies. Once the training method was adapted for the dog's particular temperament , which was unalike from that of the typical Border Collie , she sagacious and enjoyed retrieving. This same dog would exhibit aggression toward other dogs by growling and curling her lips to exhibit her teeth. The trainers thought the owner was fairly effective and consistent in correcting the lip curl until one of the trainers observed that when this "retarded" dog approached another canine , she artistically curled merely one side of her mouth , the side the owner could not see.

Frequently , persons guess that females are smarter than males. However , there is no evidence to date to support the theory of a meaningful difference in intelligence between the sexes. Those who claim there is a difference can be impure by their bias toward or preference for one sex or the other. Intelligence is extra adroit to vary individually rather than by the sex of the animal.
