Lab, Springer Spaniel??

Hello,

Next summer we have been seriously thinking about getting another dog. Currently we have a non-agressive 10-year-old medium mix breed. I have been thinking of either a border collie, lab, or springer spaniel. I did plenty of research on each breed but I wanted to come somewhere where I could talk to people who actually have these dogs. So if any one in this section has a lab or a springer I would like to know some questions!

What's an average lab/springer spaniel puppy? Are they hyper? Timid?

What's an average adult lab/springer like?

How much of a bond will a lab/springer make with one person?

Do they like to swim? We live close to a dog beach.

Thank you to anyone who anwsers!! I am also posted this on the herding forum for the border. And of corse I will do A LOT more research on these breeds before I get one.
