Which dog is the smartest and most humane? Even dogs of the same breed have different personalities and IQs. The world's canine IQ ranking is only a comprehensive evaluation of the dog breeds with the highest IQs. But this ranking is not absolute. Just like humans, there are high and low IQs. Therefore, maybe the dog in the house of the shit-sweeper is the "Einstein" among dogs!

Dogs are mankind’s closest animal friends and also the most spiritual. People generally believe that dogs understand human nature.

There are many animals domesticated by humans, such as pigs, cats, sheep, and cows. Why are only dogs considered to be human? This starts with the wolves that evolved into dogs.

During that period, although there were big cats such as saber-toothed tigers, wolves were the only competitors to humans. As a social animal, wolves have amazing hunting abilities, and humans are always facing the threat of wolves.

1. Dogs evolved from wolves

In the long-term competition, smart humans turned enemies into friends, and gradually domesticated some weak-willed wolves into dogs for their own use. Of course, wolves have already begun to domesticate themselves as they gather in human settlements and scavenge through trash.

This way of life is easier to maintain a stable life than hunting. As a result, these wolves that are close to humans become less and less vigilant and gradually become submissive.

2. Different domestication purposes make dogs more unique

Due to the different purposes of domestication - dogs exist to be human helpers, while cattle, sheep, and pigs are mostly used for food, so this determines that dogs and humans have a deeper tacit understanding.

Dogs have made countless achievements in anti-smuggling, drug detection, and crime detection and tracking... There is no substantial reproductive isolation between dogs of different breeds, and they can still mate with each other. Today, there are more than 300 to 400 breeds.

3. So how smart are dogs?

The ratio of brain size to body size - the "Encephalometric Quotient" (EQ) - is an indicator of IQ.

The EQ of humans is about 7.5, that of chimpanzees is 2.5, that of rhesus monkeys is 2.1, that of dogs is 1.2, that of cats is 1.0, and that of rabbits is 0.4. It can be seen that in the animal kingdom, the IQ of dogs is higher than that of cats, which is on the upper side.
