Yes, the German Shepherd is a German breed of dog, first bred in 1899 in Karlsruhe, Germany mainly by Captain Max von Stephanitz. In 1899, the German organisation Verein fur Deutsche Scharferhunde SV was formed to oversee breeding programs of the German Shepherd.
Germany. A dog named Horand was declared the first German Shepherd back in 1899.
The German Shepherd dog was developed from prick eared European herding and farm dogs in the late 1800s. During 1899 a German dog fancier and cavalry officer, Captain Max Von Stephanitz, purchased a herding dog named Hektor Linksrhein that greatly impressed him. He brought the dog to his vast Estate in Grafath Germany. Von Stephanitz subsequently renamed the dog Horand v Grafrath. On April 22, 1899 Von Stephanitz, Adolf Meyer, Ernst Von Otto and others, formed the Verein fur Deutsche Schaferhunde (SV) in Germany. The translation of this name is roughly, "The German Shepherd Dog Club of Germany". The SV started a registration book and Harand v Grafrath became the first registered German Shepherd Dog. On Sept. 20, 1899, the SV adopted a breed standard based on the proposals of Meyer and Von Stephanitz and later held its first specialty show at Frankfurt-am-Main, using the titles Sieger and Siegerin. The development of the German Shepherd Dog had begun.

The German Shepherd breed was first developed in the late 19th century, mainly by Max von Stephanitz, who is considered the father of the breed. The breed was initially used for herding sheep but later became popular as police and military dogs due to their intelligence and versatility.
They were orignally bred in Germany as sheep herding dogs.
German shepherd is my guess
First of all its GERMAN SHEPHERD, not "Shepard". Second of all, if your dog is not current on his/her rabies (which, why in the world would he/she not be) then you should get this dog to the veterinary IMMEDIATELY to be checked out.
6-18 months is average.
