Yes, because a GSD and a Doberman look EXACTLY the same. Silly people
Believe it or not, I actually saw a pic of a long haired Doberman once! It was on some sanctuary's website, and I can't find it now, but I swear it was a red Doberman with long, flowing hair, like an afghan hound! I kinda wonder if someone mixed an afghan hound with a Doberman and it happened to come out looking mostly Dobe-ish.
ETA: Yay for google! I found a different one that looks more spanielish. They claim its a rare genetic defect or something. I guess its possible, its known to happen in rottweilers too.
