I once used as an example a published data-set on various 
breeds of puppies and their problem-solving abilities
(a score of 8 denotes a puppy who solved all 8 tasks 
- e.g. tugging on a wooden dowel tied to the food dish).

The data-set went

Wirehaired                                  Cocker 
Terrers     Beagles   Shelties   Basenjis  Spaniels
  1           0         0          5         0
  6           6         0          8         0
 ...         ...       ...        ...       ...
  2           6         1          2         0


Unfortunately I've no idea what book/paper/article
I lifted the problem from, but I now want to give
a proper attribution.

Does anyone recognise the data-set & where it comes from?
Googling just told me more about dog-rearing than I care to know.

        Many thanks - Ewart Shaw
