There is this black-and white discription of Labs. They are soandso, and soandso, and thisandthat. Yes, at times Labs are gentle. I can safely say that I have a gentle streak. AND (not but) they are also a bit thick sometimes. I can also safely say that I have a headbutting streak. And occasionally knock things over. I don't remember all the time how fragile humans are (and porcellain), well, certain parts of them more than others. It's nothing personal, not at all. Just plain being a Lab, a mix of many characteristics! In general, Labs are good-natured, playful, like water to splash in, and food. Actually, this is also where I in particular are a biteen different. I do not gobble my food. Rosie does. Straight down, no chewing. She doesn't need teeth, everything is swallowed whole! Me, I chew with consideration, and I do sniff at things that are unfamiliar before I would pick them up and eat. Humans don't take time to sniff things. They don't sniff their food, and often don't do a lot of chewing either. Which can result in human flatulence! Not that I mind. But they seem to be unhappy about it. So why not adopt the Nell-technique? Sniff, then decide. If you decide to eat, chew. Stop when full. Easy for me, I know. Not so easy for others, perhaps.
