I think whether or not a lab would mix well depends on the dog itself. They can be very hyper, but sometimes you come across one that is laid back. Penny has play days occasionally with our friends' two yellow labs. One is about 3, and she doesn't mind Penny. She will play with her and be as calm as possible. The other, however, is under a year and is very pushy. She's still a puppy herself, so her advances threaten Penny.

Good luck with your search. I don't know anything about the other breeds (the first two I didn't even know by name), but I boxers. I think they are beautiful!!
