obedience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For him, what allows dogs to develop a specific type of intelligence is the desire to communicate effectively with humans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dogs can communicate through understanding signals, actions and commands, as well as expressing barks, body movements and actions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the professor, a dog can understand up to 160 words, while others can understand 250 or more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What is fundamental about communicating with dogs is that they really&nbsp;<em>care<\/em>&nbsp;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In an interview with the American Kennel Club (AKC), the head of the canine cognition laboratory at Barnard College at Columbia University, <a href=\"https:\/\/psychology.barnard.edu\/profiles\/alexandra-horowitz\" target=\"_blank\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/psychology.barnard.edu\/profiles\/alexandra-horowitz\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Alexandra Horowitz<\/a>, explains that \u201cdogs are very attentive and receptive to us\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While this is true for all dogs, some breeds have certain characteristics that put them a cut above others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>See which are the most intelligent dog

perform certain tasks or when they are able to carry out certain commands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This response is believed to be a need to please the guardians.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They are currently employed in
