I have a 4 month old boy pup that has the same markings.I was wondering if the ddr, east germany shepherds have more of a tendency to be all black in comparison to the american bread of the GSD,and also what if any differences do solid black shepherds have from tan/black,or red/black ones?

Not odd, just obvious on a black dog by: GSDGenes
Such white markings are actually common in GSDs, usually appearing on the chest, toes, and sometimes even the tail tip.
These markings usually get smaller and less obvious as a puppy grows up, and become less noticeable.
However in a dark bicolor or a solid black dog, these markings are very obvious because of their contrast against the black.
