Pesonally, I think it's pretty silly to say that a dog is a completely different breed simply becase it is a different color, that is, unless those two different colors are kept entirely and exclusively among themselves. The gene for white fur is in the entire German Shepherd Dog population, dispersed throughout, and it's only a matter or time until two carrying the recessive gene meet and mate. White GSD's have been around since the foundation of the breed itself. The Nazi Party basically banned them in 1933, and things happened from there, with various turns and re-turns and standardizations and exceptions made. As yet, only the UKC in the US recognizes them as a distinct breed of their own rather than just a colour variation.
Here's more on the history of them http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_German_Shepherd .
It is, in fact, a German Shepherd dog.

I know Bluesheps exist, LOL I picked the name Blueshep for my screen name on this site. It was a old AOL name that I came up with and Aol made the name for me, they asked my favorite color and some of my hobbies, which included Shepherds, that's where the name came from. I don't raise Blue Shepherds and some on here have e-mailed me thinking I did. All West German here.
