Training and intelligence

What the current scores can—and cannot—show

Trainability is not the same as intelligence or obedience. The available 3/5 and 4/5 scores indicate general responsiveness, while stubbornness, attention span and a preferred training style require more specific evidence. Reward-based, consistent training and early socialization are appropriate starting principles.

Feeding and weight management

Use size and body condition—not a generic calorie number

Calorie needs vary with current weight, age, neuter status, activity and body condition. This page does not invent a breed-wide calorie target. The feeding records below identify only supported breed-level considerations and should be combined with veterinary advice.

Matching space and climate to care capacity

Apartment suitability is 3/5 versus 2/5. A lower apartment score does not mean a breed cannot live in one; exercise, enrichment, noise, training and building rules can be more important than floor area alone.
