[quote]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?[quote]

First of all Congratulations about getting a puppy!
I have a 6 month old Black Lab puppy, so I might be able to help you with that but, I couldn't say anything about a Springer Spaniel.

My Lab puppy can be very hyper. Sometimes if he hasn't gotten enough exercise, he will just take off and run around in circles in the house! So, yes they are hyper. But, when he is tired out you can just pick him up and he will fall right asleep in your arms!
He is timid sometimes but he was a rescue puppy so that might be just because of his background.

I couldn't say anything about an adult because mine is still a puppy himself.....Sorry

My lab pup has bonded wonderfully to the whole family! He especially loves my dad, but he loves the rest of us too.

My lab absolutely LOVES to swim! So far he likes the kiddie pool better than the lake but he is liking it more and more as he gets older. So, a dog beach would be great for a lab!

If you have any more questions don't hesitate to ask!
