Border Collies are brilliant, having been bred specifically for intelligence. My smarter Boston Terrier has a vocabulary of about 30 words, the dumber one, about 20. But the boy surprises from time to time. Brought me his tennis ball one day, and I said no Bean, get the football, and he dropped the tennis ball and went and got the football.
He cares about what he cares about, is what it comes down to.
