Compared to, say, a human? Sure, a dog's brain is smaller than a human's. But then, a human's brain is smaller than a whale's brain, so it's all relative. If you mean 'are dogs stupid,' then it depends on the breed. Some breeds (like Afghan hounds) are rather notoriously dumb, while others, like Pembroke Welsh Corgis and Border Collies, are incredibly intelligent. Also size doesn't necessarily matter the elephant has the same mass as our brain but yet it's larger in size because ours is more compact then theirs.

Dogs have relatively smaller brains compared to humans, but their brain size is still suitable for their cognitive abilities, instincts, and behaviors. They have evolved to excel in tasks such as tracking scents, recognizing human emotions, and understanding commands from their owners.
