He's very cute and is a GSD. He may not be the most well bred dog, but that won't stop him from making a nice pet.

It's a GSD. The white spotting gene, which can cause white on the chest and feet, and occasionally other areas, does exist in the breed and shows up from time to time.

Stosh also had white toes and a patch on his chest when he was that age-- the white toes went away but there's still a tiny bit of white on his chest. He's AKC registered

Very cute German Shepherd pup. I agree the white should go away.

That is an awful lot of white on the toes. I have seen white toes on younger puppies, but usually not quite that much. Up to about three weeks Babs had white on a toe, and you could not tell at all by ten weeks. But I have not seen a lot of white toes going on, so others maybe see more white on the feet? There is something else in the way she stands. Is the pup offered with papers? Just curious.
