Sometimes it is easier to guess than others.

It's easier to guess when the dog is older. Fun game though, guess the mix.

It's really hard to guess with a puppy because you can't tell what it will grow into when it's all grown up. A lot of guessing is based on the dog's adult build and structure, not so much its coloring. So it's hard to tell when they're that little.

The puppy in the photo looks like a GSD puppy to me. But like I said, at this stage, that's pretty much guessing.

Looks like a black and tan GSD with white spotting. But very hard to tell for certain from that pic alone. More pics, including some standing and profile views would help.

so there is really no way to tell what kind of mix it is if it's still a pup

No, there really isn't any way to be certain, though more photos would help.

That pup definitely has some GSD in it, may even be purebred or if a mix its a high percentage mix. But no, we can't tell you for certain if it's purebred or if it is mixed what it is mixed with based off that photo.
