Up there in intelligence and for doing what i consider worthwhile work (herding,guide work etc) but i don't see them as "masculine" dogs that can guard and protect vulnerable members of the family, which means we'd never own one.
They'd make top watch dogs and i still like them, though they shed too much and i wouldn't invest in one, personally.

My border was a great guard dog. Anytime I met a guy I brought him to my dog and my dog would instantly tell me who was a good guy and not.
He also scared away unwelcome guests who tried crashing my sister's party.
Very sharp hearing from miles away too. He would always keep a look out and "alarm" if something shady went on outside.
To protect their herd is A and O so I'm suprised your dog didn't.
