Retrievers are like top 5 in breed intelligence. Only by people who miscategorize trainability as intelligence. For some reason in dogs there is an insistence that biddability and trainability equal intelligence. That's not how we measure intelligence in humans and it shouldn't be in dogs, either. Labs are not very smart, but they are eager to please and easy to train thanks to their high food drive.

I don't think there is really a good metric for it right now. We should just admit we don't have a good way of measuring it. Measuring intelligence is really hard to do even in humans, and we still arguably don't have it down. These lists that claim "most intelligent breeds" are still useful, but they should be described instead as "most biddable breeds," which is more accurate and useful to know. --- Touch fuzzy get dizzy. <cite>Wetterdew posted [p:912425215] in Why do dog...
