I currently have a beautiful, most wonderful yellow lab, Laci. She is 7 years old, and the most loveable dog in this world! She is super sweet with the little ones and has the most positive disposition ever!
We had a golden retriever many years ago and I have to agree that she was a bit calmer than Laci the lab...
If you are going to have alot of time to spend playing go with the lab, if your pup needs to be more self sufficient, go with the retreiver they do seem to me to be a bit calmer.
good luck!
let us know
