Not a video or book, but an interesting link on canine gait. A study of canine lameness http://accad.osu.edu/~hcaprett/COTA_741_sp04/CanineLO_090504.html There are two ways to view each dog- wireframe and video and then there are three different views: There is an example of a Normal Gait, a dog with Hip Dysplasia, and one with Cranial Cruciate Ligament Rupture. You can watch them at normal speed and then slow them down. Not a german shepherd, but an interesting study.
