Good genetics will always produce a bully that has good game and muscle tone.
(This is for a later debate though, so not towith the
)
GSD are good dogs, mostly easy to train and willing to learn. My grandparents bred them for some decades and only had problems with a couple of them. I wasnt too involved with them just because they were not my style.
"pitbulls", proper names being American Pitbull Terrier (APBT), American Staffordshire Terrier (AmStaff), or Stafforshire Terrier (Staffy) are a VERY high drive and full of energy ALL of the time. It can take 2 to 3 years for your bully to start to calm down. They will get in to tons of trouble if you do not keep them occupied. They do take a lot of work and discipline form YOU to get what you want out of them. Though you will get a great dog and friend in return for all your training.
One other thing to keep in mind is :You will have to answer for your pibbl too! You will get to deal with idiots every day all day. You will hear all kinds of stupid MYTHS that the media likes to blow-up. ***They are man eaters.......They have locking jaws.........They kill people because its in their blood..............If they taste your blood they will kill you.........and so on.***
Study and make sure a bully is what you want and what you think you can handle.
With a bully you may also want to get an old treadmill to help burn some energy when you dont have the time to walk it.
With ANY of them you want to invest in a good dog kennel so that they cannot get into trouble while you two are at work. It sounds cruel but its better than coming home to a dog that was bored and found a power cord to chew on.
If you have any questions feel free to pm me.
