He sounds very smart, but isn't Kade part border collie? They're the smartest breed, right? I don't think every kind of dog is quite up to this standard. Then again, the hypothetical dog at the beginning of the post sounds especially poorly behaved.

The dog I walk (not my dog) doesn't jump on people (except for one family we occasionally run into who apparently know her, this gets her really excited), and never barks, but she does pull on the leash and steal cat food. She'll "sit," "stay," "come," "high five" but is mostly motivated by treats.
