I love how she is not confident in her pick so she tries to hide in case its wrong.

that dog has got the looks and the brains!

When you can't train you dog to sit

There's dogs like this and mine barks at it's own farts.

You know why this dog is amazing? Because her dad is retired and dedicated her A LOT OF TIME, dogs are full of potential. They are just like kids, if you barely speak to a child they'll be really bad at expresing themselves and start talking at a bigger age. Talk to a kid pretty much all day everyday and they'll talk clearly in no time :)

2:00 She's so nervous she might get it wrong XD

She looked so scared when she didn't know which one to pick

I had a collie/sheepdog mix, and she understood a lot of words. It's amazing how smart dogs are when you take time to teach them

she has better memory than I do ◕╭╮◕

Chaser is adorable! I've never met her in my life but she's now the love of my life.

She is amazing, what a talent! I always knew that Border Collies are smart but she is absolutely brilliant! :)

That dog could probably understand this video

I wish Chaser had lived long enough to use the button system to give voice to her thoughts. She was a remarkable girl.

Through both his passion for learning and compassion for dogs Professor Pilley made a major contribution to our understanding and appreciation for "man's best friend". In doing so he not only made an important scientific contribution. He armed those who labor to defend the rights of these most special creatures with even more powerful proof they deserve our respect and protection. God bless Prof. Pilley and let us pray he resides in a heaven of both the people and animals he so loved.

Aww I love how happy she looks at the end in her huge pile of toys :D

Just saw this program on Tv - we had our Collie for 13 years and she had a HUGE vocabulary, she could read our bodylanguage and understood phrases and sentences - she also knew all her toy names - about 30 over the years. Her vocab was roughly more or less of a 2-3 year old - her reading your body language and exactly knowing what you plan to do was amazing. We missed her a lot - she passed away due to old age March 2023. We treated her like a child and she knew she was our 'child' - she was a rescue dog too. We got her when she was 3 months old - previous owners wanted to put her down!!

Never underestimate a dog's intelligence. The are amazing. This dog is so clever.

I'm in love with this breed!!!

She even looks smart

i am sobbing SOBBING she's so smart omg

Best.dog.ever.

I have BC's and they never cease to amaze or teach me new things all the time but one of the most incredible things I realised was how my even whilst asleep, my eldest collie recognised specific sounds and noises from what I was doing and reacted. She always knew when I was about to go to bed and seconds beforehand, would run upstairs lying down at the top which is where she'll sleep. It didn't matter what time I went up, if others were still downstairs and it didn't follow a regular routine i.e. locking up and switching off lights so I couldn't work out what it was that told her it was time for bed until one July afternoon during a heatwave. She jumped off the sofa and hurtled upstairs lying at the top which struck me as really odd because these dogs don't make that kind of mistake and something had *definitely* told her I was going to bed. After a lot of experimenting and retracing my steps, I realised a habit I didn't even know I had which was running and drinking a glass of water the very last thing before I started upstairs. Even whilst asleep her brain registered the sounds of me running the tap, filling a glass, swilling and tipping out water then the “clunk” as I put it on the draining board. If I did each thing out of normal sequence, left too long between each or if anything wasn't in the exact same sequence as I would normally, she didn't flinch. When I did it normally, not taking time to try and catch her out, her sleeping brain still registered the sound and she was eyes open, wide awake and up the stairs in seconds. The breed is absolutely remarkable but I think we've barely scratched the surface in terms of understanding exactly how remarkable they are 🙂

What a beautiful face and mind she has!. 🐶

So many amazing things about this Video, including Chaser is 2nd guessing himself. Chaser quickly worked out which toy "Meow", was, but you could see Chaser constantly 2nd guessing himself. This is very evident when Chaser picks up "Meow", he headed towards John, than diverted sideways. John than enthusiasticly confirmed it was "Meow". That was all Chaser needed, his confidence & enthusiasm skyrocketed & then he confidently strided straight to John, with "Meow", safely clenched in his teeth

Chaser got bored with the stuffed toys and was waiting for more challenges like learning to play chess.

She's very intelligent.

What a good girl wow i love her

This is such a wonderful discovery. It's just amazing.

Dude this man is awesome

They forgot to mentioned that this breed of dog is the most intelligent in the dog world.

What a Good! She's such a Good! I love her!!!

I think the dog is so clever!

So smart, lovely dog, love to the dog

well done professor!

What a team.A delight to see them together

I knew a border collie once that absolutely astounded me. She was scary smart! I don't know how large her vocabulary was, but it was huge. I was convinced she just knew the English language. Her name was Maggie.

Love the pup in the middle of a of her toys at the end! I always had heard that dogs know 150 words; this finding was quite amazing, but not surprising.

simply amazing

That's adorable.

A *sponsored skater from the San Francisco bay area* and his puppies brought me here.

gOOD GIRL IM SO PROUD OF YOU, YOU'RE LIVING YOUR BEST LIFE

Woah. This is amazing.

I absolutely loved this, Cheers for a terrific share :)

R.I.P. Chaser. All dogs go to heaven.

Smart doggy.

Her toys are amazing!

so clever

thumbs up for Chaser!

Amazing!

Wow! That's amaging! Learning through elimination! wow!

This guy must be amazing at those arcade claw machine games.

I'm impressed 👏🏻

Why would anyone dislike this video!?

wow... the dog is amazing!

I told my dog, “thank you fir being a sweet dog, we appreciate it.” She looked like she really understood and appreciated it.

Fabuloso!!!!

cute. I know my Toby can learn this too. He's a 14 yr old border collie.

At 1:44 she’s like “dude are you sure?”

marvellous

That is A LOT of soft toys for a dog! WOOF WOOF! haha 😂!

Good puppo!

what a smart pupper

That's amazing !

this dog is smarter than me feelsbadman.

Of course, she's a Border Collie!

Very cool. This only validates my understanding of canine awareness

My students must watch this!

I wish my mother in law vocabulary was that big.

Who's a good girl?

clever girl

awww love it

actually this dog is smarter. dogs are just amazing. i am sure there are more challenging things for him to do

good dog

The goodest girl.

Forever lost opportunity on "go get it right meow!"

Japp bordercollies best dog in the world

Wow!!! She knows more words in English than I know in German... even after so much studying. I feel ashamed now.

Goood Boy!

This dog should be president

Aww, I read his book about Chaser years ago :) It's nice to see Chaser again

wow

This is fake. The toys all have the names written on them. The dog isn't smart it's just reading the names.

Ahh i hate when reporters end with a corny comment. Awesome dog tho!

Wow

this is MIAW !!

Was telling my children how smart dogs are but they didn't believe me. Now they understand =)

I would say most dogs of medium size or larger and some extra intelligence in some breeds can do a similar thing to this lovely dog it just takes a few things to unlock the ability, A person with the love and energy and patience on how to train and the last three are important would be bond, knowledge and time! I have a English Springer Spaniel known to be very attentive and a very high intelligence, We have been inseparable since I picked him out, I have given him so much of my time I speak to him all the time and he understands nearly everything of what I'm saying, When i talk to another human about him he will listen and if I mention that ill be taking him for a trim or vets or if I'm talking about his favourite spots to go on a walk He will beg me to take him out or not to if its the vets, To me he's a little human in a dogs body, He knows when it his delivery of food from the courier by the box he carries he knows the brand name and names of all the treats a mountain of toys also have names and he will pick them out if you ask, the list is endless of the examples of how intelligent he is, The love I get back from him is amazing and he loves to show it, I see some other people with their dogs or on how they keep a dog is not a pleasant they treat them as a lesser animal and stuff like some dogs are left live in the garden and is not allowed in the house and stuff and they have a rather boring life of waiting for hours upon hours just for a few minutes of attention a day or so maybe a walk if they are lucky and they live around their own shit most of the time, it truly saddens me, if only they knew what their dog was actually capable of they would treat them differently, I'm not calling them animal abusers but it's sorta close to it because they don't give the best life for the dog, We should treat them like our own children, I think I ranted a little too much but I had to unload since it's been bothering me

There is no way I will be able to learn the names of 1000 toys if I couldnt read. Chaser's brain is more developed than that of a human.

I wonder what it will do to the "meow" toy when a cat "meow" to it.

can dogs can make my mindblowing math homework?

Dew it dew it

cool dogie

this dog is smarter than a 2-year-old baby

This dog is smarter than me, I can't remember 1000 words

not to be dramatic but i would die for that doggo

what a beautiful dog ! Whats the name of it type ?

This is a flawed test, they shouldn't had labeled the toys, he could identify those thing just by reading!

"meowth that's right"

my border collie was also my accountant

After 6 years of unintensive training, Nanouk can identify about 22 or so toys + fetch car keys & things like that. Still working on the other 1000!😄
