That would all depend on just what you want to train the dog to do.
A sight hound would be easier to train for finding game and chasing it down than a herding dog would be.
A Border Collie will be easier to train for herding sheep than a Greyhound would be or a Poodle.
The most versatile breeds that can be trained quite easily to do a number of different jobs and to be trained to a high level of obedience are the Standard Poodle, the Border Collie, and the German Shepherd. The Labrador is also highly trainable.
the most trainable dog breeds and the most intelligent are The Border Collie
The standard Poodle and
The German shepherd , but the collie and the german shepherd are also very active working dogs who need a job to do. They are not for a novice owner and need hours of exercise. Also all the gundog breeds are highly trainable, but again, they like to be outdoors and need a very active lifestyle.
To do what? Using what methods? By whom? A lot of the behaviors we see in dogs are channeled instincts more than training fully novel behaviors - modifications of herding or retrieving drives, dogs who naturally follow a scent or naturally pursue running game, etc.
If you are training a dog in "traditional obedience exercises" then a balanced trainer with experience will probably get the fastest and most reliable results with a herding or gundog breed since they were developed to work closely with people.
If you are training a dog in "stupid pet tricks" with lots of treats, the terriers are wicked smart and kind of really motivated by that.
If you are training a dog in a task that should be mostly instinctive, then you are best off getting a dog bred for that task. For example, you really can't train a dog to guard livestock, that is inborn instinct plus early imprinting on stock.
Also, the breed that is "most trainable" by an experienced trainer is likely a dog that is easy to ruin or even dangerous in the hands of a novice or typical pet owner. A Malinois is a great dog for work or performance sports, but they WILL rip the seat out of your pants to get to the tennis ball in your pocket, then scale an 8' fence to look for trouble and body-slam a few children before playing the neighbor's chickens or sheep to death. Very "trainable" in the right hands, but not a very good idea in the typical home!
Most animals can be trained right if by a professional. German shepards and labs are probably the top two, with Dobermans and Pits next. We had a cocker spaniel that wasn't trainable at all, he went to a farm the next year.
It depends what you want to train for! It's more easy to teach a retriever to retrieve, a herder to herd and a molosser to guard, for example.
Generally, Border Collies are acutely intelligent and quick to learn. GSDs are another highly intelligent breed. I've also met extremely trainable ESSs and Rotties.
Each of those breeds like to please their handlers, so are often keen to engage in reward based training. Of course, there will be individuals who are less clever or more independent but generally not.
There are lots that are easy to train, but if your looking into getting a new dog that's not all you need to consider cuz say your life style is relaxed or you have a small yard your not going to want a border collie cuz even thought they are easy to train they will not be happy with out a lot of daily exercise. They easiest breeds would be border collie, German Shepherd, poodle, or best of all a mutt
its true that border collies are the most intellegent of dogs. but one of the most trainable dogs is the Belgian Malenois ( not sure of the spelling.) they are ususally trained for gaurd dogs and used along with the gsd for police work. it looks like a german shepard but can jump and climb much much higher and is a quick learner and eager to please. poodles are also said to be the third smartest dog breed.
For a beginner trainer, I would suggest a poodle...miniature or toy.
Herding breeds for the most part are also fairly easy, but no matter what breed you decide upon, without a certain amount of trainer yourself, no breed will be easy.
if you are looking for working dogs to do something for you or your family then here's some might help ?
