What smaller dog breeds have similar personalities to Labradors?
I’m moving into a townhouse, and I really love Labs. The place I’ll be living has a 40lb weight limit. I’d like to know what dog breeds have similar personality traits. I particularly like the really loving and loyal aspect of their personalities.
Papillons are active, like Labradors, and generally outgoing, like Labradors. They can be a little more yippy than a Labrador though.
What about looking for a Lab mix at a shelter? There are plenty of tiny Lab mixes that are only about thirty or forty pounds. They look and act like Labs- just smaller!
This dog, for example: http://www.petfinder.com/petdetail/17227483
Shih Tzus and Cavailier Spaniels also have very outgoing personalities. Beagles might be another good bet.
