Not by that definition, nope - they'll start rising up out of average.
Plus - that's not really training a dog well. I mean, I know dogs do a lot in figuring us out when we DO train them well, but if they have to basically do ALL the work, then they aren't being trained.
And yep, those are often considered "beginner dogs" but I guess folks forget that these dogs still need stuff beyond sitting and peeing outside. I mean, those are energetic sporting dogs used to running and traveling long distances and the mental challenges of spotting and retrieving game, often following the handler's direction of need be. What's ironic is their intellect and biddability probably will have them "asking" their people "what are we gonna do today? huh? huh? huh?" and then the dog is "hyper and pushy" now.
Shoot, if all they want is some sits and peeing outside, probably any dog on that list could give them that, even if they have to bribe them for it (which still isn't training).
I think that average person doesn't want a dog, they want an animal that looks like a dog but doesn't make any sound and doesn't have a mind of their own.
No idea how "average" is, but I found it kind of interesting because not many pet owners I know of ask about books about OC, CC, and the like, don't care about competition behaviors...they just want advice to make their dog pee outside/shut up when told. Most people that spend time on a dog forum want to know more than the average joe.
Never mind that the dog is probably barking because it's them trying to create their own stimulation because they aren't getting any. Mr/Mrs. Average probably never thought of that. They just think the dog is disobeying and therefore must be punished (or worse, given up/pts, and they continue look for this mythical dog-look-a-like animal).
I think that list isn't so much easiest for the average owner, but easiest for the average dog trainer/owner-with-a-trainer-mindset. I could see an average trainer achieving success with the 'easier' dogs that put up more with inconsistent signals, weaker (not outright horrible) timing, poorer (not outright clueless) execution, or just not having a clear idea of what the behavior should look like, so accept weaker/wrong versions of the correct behavior, but the dog figures it out fast and gives the right response almost every time and this issue rarely shows up.
Meanwhile, the 'harder' dogs are probably just more unorthodox in how you approach them (so basic out-of-the-book methods probably won't fly, at least not without modification) and the average trainer would struggle more.
The average dog owner would struggle with them all, especially with what was said in Culture Clash.
