What tests to select for advanced intelligence in wolves?

+0
−0

Say I want to make wolves intelligent like people, to create a Canis Sapiens of sorts.

What sorts of tests should I conduct to develop human-like intelligence?

If it helps, the sort of traits I'm looking for is stuff measured by IQ tests such as short-term memory, analytical thinking, mathematical ability and spatial recognition.

Notes:

I'm not sure how well we could test analytical thinking if the dog hasn't developed the ability to enunciate properly but if you can figure out how to get that done, please do.

I chose wolves because I figured the presence of a social structure might allow for the creation of societies and more complex thinking. Also not being turned into a certain breed of dogs probably leaves more adaptive flexibility but if you disagree let me know.
