We have a golden retriever, and he does a great job. We had a black lab before him. The type of dog is really less important than how he is trained. However, retriever and herd dogs are more likely to have the right instincts, which makes them easier to train for these tasks. Australian cattle dogs, border collies, and Anatolian Shepherds are all nice choices for these jobs. Just keep in mind, these are all high energy dogs. Lack of direction, or the inability to run off some energy, will result in some behavior problems.
