But the author is using a methodology of obedience and trainability (as opposed to, say problem solving). Just as Textcritic said, Golden retrievers are very easy to train because they are single-mindedly devoted to following commands. Doesn't necessarily equate with intelligence, even with the guy who administers the test calls it an 'intelligence test'.
