What do you want? Do you want a treat? Do you want my soul? Do you want my loyalty? I\u2019ll give you anything.”<\/p>\n Ha! Pet parents can completely relate.<\/p>\n “Ummmmm, yes!

Their intelligence and ability to learn and acquire skills allow them to work as watchdogs, police dogs, and guide dogs for the blind.<\/p>\n But just how smart are these canines? According to experts, they’re as intelligent as a human three-year-old<\/a>, while the average dog is as smart as a two-and-a-half-year-old.<\/p>\n What is the most intelligent breed? Turns out Border Collies<\/a><\/strong> take the top spot, followed by Poodles<\/strong>, with German Shepherds rounding out the top three.<\/p>\n I can say from experience that this is a very smart breed. My grandparents had German Shepherds, and my grandmother taught their dogs to fetch my grandfather for dinner each evening. Here’s how it worked: My grandmother’s beloved pet would stand beside her in the kitchen as she prepared the nightly meal, and when it was finished, she’d turn to her German Shepherd and say, “Go get Dad!” and off the dog would trot from the kitchen through the living room and out to the sunporch to nudge my grandfather’s arm. Quite a system!<\/p>\n Mav quickly learned that his sweet head tilt won his mama’s heart. Wondering how often he exploits this maneuver?<\/p>\n “Head tilts at everything,” his mama writes. LOL.<\/p>\n This story was originally reported by Parade Pets<\/a> on Nov 2, 2025, where it first appeared in the Pet News<\/a> section.
