HI,
Labbys by nature are very compatible with other dogs but it does depend slightly on the nature of your dog. We have a 20mth old black labby who is VERY submissive by nature so introducing another dog to our household was not all that difficult (albeit there was a few teething problems). Just remember the nature of a labby, very bouncy, very energetic etc... A greyhound or other quiet dog isn't going to be the best companion.
Our 2nd dog is a border collie (still a puppy), which tend to have similar traits to our labby and they get on really well. Just always make sure YOU are the pack leader over your new & current dog, otherwise you will be in all sorts of problems.
And just another thing to consider, a dog & a bitch usually go better together that two dogs or 2 bitches. Our labby is a bitch and the collie is the dog, and as of yet, youch wood had no real problems (apart from the usuall puppy things - soust training etc..) :)
Hope this helps
