A dog's IQ can vary depending on the breed and individual differences. IQ is usually used to evaluate the intelligence level and learning ability of animals, but it is not a completely accurate concept, and a single standard cannot be used to measure a dog's IQ.
Stanley Coren is an animal psychologist who proposed a classification of dog intelligence in his book "Infinite Intelligence: Uncovering the IQ of Dogs." He divided dogs' IQ into three categories based on their ability to learn and obey new commands: excellent, good and average. However, Crane's classification is mainly based on the dog's learning ability and obedience, and does not cover the dog's performance in other cognitive abilities.
In fact, dogs exhibit different intelligences in different areas and tasks. Certain dog breeds excel at specific tasks or jobs, such as sheepdogs that show superior intelligence and ability to work while herding sheep, and border collies that excel at training and following instructions. Other breeds may excel in social intelligence, adaptability, or problem-solving abilities.
Generally speaking, dogs are intelligent animals with certain abilities to learn and adapt. The key is that dog owners can develop and enhance their dogs’ intellectual potential through positive training, stimulation and challenges to improve their cognitive abilities and behavioral performance.
