I read that story yesterday. I can certainly testify about the border collie. We had a border collie/wolf mix. That was one creative dog! He could climb trees, sniff out all sorts of stuff and was on the go, all the time. Around Christmas one year, we put the presents on the top of the fridge to keep him from investigating the packages while we were gone. We returned and found that dog lying on the top of the fridge with some curl ribbon hanging out of his mouth.

We laughed for hours.

Any dog with wolf in him is going to be creative and a challenge.

I had a dog who was a pointer/wolf hybrid mix and he was scary smart. He would use chairs as ladders to get stuff on high shelves — and even push the chair back once he had been caught.

My current dog is a border collie/lab mix and she’s a good combination of smart and obedient. She’s always looking at me for instructions, although she can get into quite a bit of mischief if I don’t keep her challenged.
