Khianna wants to share the results of a study on dog intelligence, broken down according to six different dog breeds.
RUDIKE [14]

Dogs' intelligence can be defined as a process by which dogs infer different types of situations, information, and skills. Studies have shown that dogs display behavior according to their intelligence (as regards their instinct, their obedience, their adaptiveness to situations, their ability to learn and to solve problems, etc)

For example, you can stand out  the following:

- Beagle: has a single-minded but he is a dog, he is employed as a detection dog because of his ability to track

- Poodle: very intelligent, they learn easy and quick (once they learn, they won't forget it up) so they are easy to train.

- German Shepherd: as they have high intelligence and learn easily and quick, they are used for example as a watchdog for home. He is a very active dog (he like to play a lot). They work for example with police or military to catch criminals, moreover, they have an excellent sniffing power to find for example drugs, etc.

- Bernese Cowherd: it is used as a working dog. He is well suited to obedience and tracking. He has a calm disposition for training him.

- Blue Merle Border Collie: they have high intelligence. They are a loyal dog. They are good at problem-solving. They are easy to train because they can memorize complex commands. Use for herding livestock.

- Labrador Retriever: this breed is used for disability assistance and as a therapy dog. They are good sporting and hunting dogs. Besides, they are used by different forces to search and rescue because of their steady temperament.
