Alaska’s intelligence is equal to that of a 3-year-old child, which is a medium IQ. If trained properly, the dog may be smarter. This has something to do with the dog’s own condition and the owner’s training. Alaskan characters are very calm and loyal, but they are not easily tamed, so you need to be patient when training, and it is best to start training from an early age. Alaskans were originally used as sled dogs, capable of rescuing their owners when they were in danger, so they are very humane.
