I actually don't like how this show barely touches on the dragons in the series, and what they do show only plays them in a darker tone than a lighter one. I don't think the older dragons are dumb, they are just more islated and choose to want to keep to themselves as shown by both the Red and Green dragons (one deep into evergreen forest and the other on the top of a mountain far away from anyone without wings.) Its no different from how fluttershy chooses to rather be arond animals, or Zacora live away from pony society really.

If anything spike is proof that dragons aren't dumb, and actually hace comprehension of thought. Not for the fact that he can speak and right, but for the fact that he can try and "assimulate" himself into another species society knowing that its going against his very instincts. If dragons lack rational thought, no matter how well trained spike was he would still maintain animalistic means which he obviously does not. Sadly the show barely touches the dragons and their culture which I would prefer they actually had one episode that went into them (the Dragon quest episode was so much bs for me it wasnt even funny.)
