Consider a Jack Russell (now called Parson's Russell in the USA), An Australian shepherd, or a border collie. But, be aware that the last two need at least 2 hours of play or mental stimulation A DAY to remain healthy and happy. Also, try your local no-kill shelter or rescue group to see if you can find a mixed breed that loves to fetch. A dog doens't have to be purebred to be good at fetch and frisbee!
Good luck in your search. : )

Border collies are the kings of frisbee and agility trials, but this doesn't mean you should run right out and get one. They are one of the highest energy breeds you'll ever have the pleasure of meeting and a large amount of exercise and mental stimulation is needed DAILY to help prevent them from becoming neurotic and destructive.
Good dogs for playing fetch; labs, golden retrievers, boxers, german shepherds....there are many more. Check out http://www.dogbreedinfo.com to look up specific traits on any breed. We have a lab/boxer mix who LOVES to play fetch.

My brother's border Collie LOVES frisbee and tennis balls. She'll also pick up sticks and pieces of wood and play with 'em. And pinecones too! When she's outside, everything's a toy. Smart breed too. Good luck.

a golden retriever is a good playful dog if you live in a regular sized house. if you live in an appartment then consider getting a smaller breed. if you live on a farm or a big house with a lot of land, a very active and playful dog to get is a border collie.

boarder collie or labs. My german shepherd mix likes to chase them a lot but he's not real successful at catching a frisbee but does really well catching a ball

Labrador.
Dachshund.
Terrior of any type.
The best breed is a lab, but all dogs like to play fetch so, just pick your choice and teach it how to play.

Border collies and australian shepherds make the best I think.
