So, the smartest dog breeds – let’s highlight 15 representatives.
It is important that all pets have high intelligence, but the type of thinking is different, on the basis of which conclusions are drawn. So experts identified three main categories:
- instinctive thinking, when the dog carries out only the commands assigned to it by nature;
- adaptive thinking, when the dog makes decisions independently;
- working mindset with the ability to learn and carry out new commands.

All trainers recognize that there are certain differences in the level of intelligence and ability to train among different breeds. However, it is also undeniable that there are significant differences in abilities between dogs within the same breed. Therefore, not all winners are collies, and not all collies are winners.
Much depends on the skill level of the trainer. “If you are a good enough trainer, then you can transform a dog of a “dumb” breed into a truly “smart” one.” Differences when working with dogs different breeds lies in the degree of difficulty or ease with which a certain level of training of a dog of a given breed can be achieved, and what is the absolute maximum training. Stanley Coren, professor of psychology at the University of British Columbia and author of The Intelligence of Dogs, has compiled an intelligence scale for dogs of 133 breeds. The basis for his research was the responses to a questionnaire he sent to all dog show judges in North America.
The picture of the results looks like this:
The smartest breeds.
Places from 1st to 10th were shared by dog breeds that differ highest intelligence in terms of obedience and working qualities. Most of these dogs will be able to demonstrate understanding of simple commands in five or fewer demonstrations, and will be able to remember them without much need for repetition. They obey the trainer's command on average 95% of the time. Moreover, they respond to commands almost instantly, even if the owner is located at a considerable distance.

Excellent working dogs
Places from 11th to 26th were shared by dog breeds distinguished by excellent working qualities. Learning a command can take anywhere from five to 15 repetitions. Dogs will remember commands very well, although practice will improve results. Such dogs will respond to the first command 85% of the time or more often. For complex commands, there may be some delay before responding. Such delays can be avoided through training. One way or another, almost any trainer will be able to train dogs of these breeds to an excellent level, even without special patience and considerable experience.

Dogs with above average working qualities
27-29th places - breeds with above average working qualities. Although they will be able to demonstrate understanding of simple, new commands within 15 demonstrations, on average it may take up to 25 repetitions before a dog can achieve a confident command execution. Practice has a very beneficial effect on dogs in this group, especially in the early stages of training. Typically, dogs of these breeds respond to the first command 70% of the time or more often, and the reliability of execution depends on the amount of training. In general, this group differs from the previous one only in that these dogs, as a rule, respond to commands less systematically and, often, there is a noticeable delay between the command and its execution. Dogs of these breeds, when moving a certain distance away from the owner, can react unstably to his commands, and when the distance is significant, they will not respond at all. Unsystematic or poor training by an inexperienced trainer leads to low level training of dogs of these breeds.

However, an acceptable level of training will take 25-40 repetitions. Given adequate training, these dogs demonstrate a good level of command retention, and additional practice during the training period definitely benefits them.

Group of breeds difficult to train
Dogs of breeds from positions 55 - 69 can hardly be called good working dogs. It may take up to 25 repetitions before they can show signs of understanding a new command, and they need 40-80 repetitions to internalize a command. But even then, the reliability of memory may be weak. Intensive practice with many repetitions may be required to improve command execution and demonstrate good preparation. If such dogs have not received several additional practical classes, then they may act as if they have forgotten what is expected of them. Periodic “refreshing” exercises are often required to keep the dog in working shape.
With an average level of training, dogs of these breeds will respond to the first command in 30% of cases. They are most obedient in close proximity to the owner.
Owners of these breeds spend a lot of time yelling at their dogs because their dogs appear completely unresponsive when they are far away from their owner. People who own such breeds usually explain the behavior of their charges in the same way as cat owners, claiming that their animals' immunity is due to "independence, restraint" and the like.
These breeds are not for beginners. An experienced trainer with plenty of time and patience can achieve a good level of training from dogs of these breeds, but even for an expert it will not be the easiest thing.

Final group
Breeds in the 70-79 range are the most difficult breeds to train. At the very beginning of training, it will take the team over 40 repetitions before the dogs show the first signs of understanding what is expected of them. For such breeds, sometimes more than 100 repetitions of team work (often distributed between classes) are required to consolidate the acquired knowledge. But even in this case, the level of preparation looks low and uncertain.
Having consolidated the command, it is necessary to work it over and over again during subsequent classes. Otherwise, the dogs will behave as if the classes never happened. Some of these breeds are considered literally "unteachable" by some judges.
