So, I asked Andrew Tamm, who filled my Stream with a hundred (sarcasm there) animated gifs and cat pictures to remove me from whatever Circle he has me in where he posts the animated gifs and cat pictures. It was either that or unfollow him and I didn't see any reason to unfollow him. Me asking https://plus.google.com/112885755521259735422/posts/78dwnvvgh4p Then he plusses me onto Public posts of animated cat gifs : https://plus.google.com/u/0/112885755521259735422/posts/EuuR1tnU3vJ https://plus.google.com/u/0/112885755521259735422/posts/8r6Grcm2Jpj https://plus.google.com/u/0/112885755521259735422/posts/74PgSu6iL2s Then one of his friends (or Circlers) starts plussing me into posts of animated cat gifs : https://plus.google.com/u/0/107120198886093172821/posts/gRW9JhWLs5T Don't get me wrong, I'm all about sarcasm and messing with people, but this seems sort of childish to me.

But yes, Yay Happens, there is also a level of learning involved, but without those innate skills that were bred into the dogs over centuries there is no foundation to learn from.

I use BCs as the example because they were only recently allowed to join the AKC as a breed because there really is no breed standard for them: breeders were breeding BCs to herd, so they didn't care if BCs were black and white, brown, blue-eyes or amber; they didn't care if the ears were erect for floppy, the fur was long or short, etc. All that mattered was whether they would and could herd.
BCs come in a variety of shapes, sizes and colors: http://www.colliecorner.com/01intro.htm but the AKC wants a specific breed standard for them.
