Well obviously not yet. Patience lol.
Also, you shouldn't be stressing his bones/joints too much while he's developing.

Although they certainly still have the typical face and stance, they are generally smaller (with some exceptions of course) and have a wider variation in coat and color. They contrast most with the typical American show lines and the general idea of how […]

The right age to teach a German Shepard would be at least one years old or older.This is because German Shepard puppies bones and joints are still developing. Playing Frisbee requires a lot of joint action.
Start off by playing with the frisbee with him when he can hold it, to increase his interest. Play tug with it for example. As he grows, start to throw it, but low to the ground, as you don’t want to stress his joints and bones while he’s growing. When he is grown fully, or at about 12 months, start throwing it a little higher. By 18 months he should be fully grown and almost completely developed, but it may be best to wait until 2 yrs, this would be the age where you can start him jumping for it. Hope this helps 🙂
DO NOT allow your GSD to jump for a frisbee until the growth plates have closed in his legs, usually by 18 months to 2 years. In the meantime, you can teach him to retrieve, even at the tender age of 2.5 months. Go to;
