brock wilson Webboard User Reg: 01-28-2005 Posts: 133 Loc: nyc Offline	Hello All- I have owned/co-owned 2 GSD's and have been consistently impressed and overjoyed at their companionship, brains, aesthitics etc etc. I must admit that I love the looks of most of the amstaffs I come across and I was wondering for those of you who may have owned both breeds, if you might compare and contrast them. I've always heard conflicting things about amstaffs (particularly re: brains and temperment) and am just looking for general impressions from anyone who might care to respond. Thanks in advance. B

I'm not going to get into which is smarter (overdone here :rolleyes: ) They Both are fantastic dogs and learn very fast, but that ofcourse depends a lot on who's on the other end of the leash. old dogs LOVE to learn new tricks

Not as easily trained as my GSD mix - Ceili lives to please me, Gypsy wanted to see if she could convince me that a command really didn't need to be done... Very dog aggressive, though she tolerated other types of animals very well, as long as they didn't attack her first. A muskrat learned the hard way that she didn't appreciate aggression against her person... Amber Murray
