I am in the midst of this right now. I have a 4 y.o chocolate lab and my wife surprised me with a chocolate puppy for Christmas. The 4 year old is amazing, one of the most calm dogs I've ever had - and the puppy is picking it up fast. Sure, she definitely wants to be up early, rough house more often, and is still learning - but she is unbelievably more calm than other 5 month old puppies I've experienced.
