When I worked in a truck shop my boss had a boxer that was a shop dog. One friend of ours had a yellow lab and another friend had a Rottweiler. The lab and the rottie were both noticeably smarter than the boxer. One of the games we played with them was throwing a brake diaphragm (similar to a frisbee) and all three dogs would race to fetch it. If you just pretended to throw it the lab and rottie would be out there a hundred yards looking for it. The dumb boxer would still be beside you staring at you waiting for you to throw it.

Intelligence is subjective.
