From the little I can see of the dog, I would highly doubt that he is a purebred German Shepherd Dog. His earset is much higher than a GSD's . . . more like a Siberian's. Also, his coat is very shaggy and his head is all wrong for a GSD. That said, he may be a very, very poor specimen of the breed, although I doubt it. To be certain, DNA testing can be done to determine exactly what he is.
