GSD most then Dobbies next require a moderately high level of exercise.
You should get a BRT! While they require the same amount of training and constant socialization, they can do very well with 40-50 minutes a day of walk time. They were bred to be with humans in the guard and protect mode. Traditionally they do not have a huge prey drive, but a huge protect drive. They are usually good with other animals, dogs, cats, parrots, etc in their home. These animals quite quickly become part of their pack!
But with all these three dominant breeds, you do need to be un-equivocably the master.
