I own a very wonderful, fully intacted, hardheaded guy who is now a year and 3 months old and I have a question. Do these lines mature slowly or what?? When I was younger, I had a rott who did not act like a complete pup the way my dog acts, he was the opposite.
He loves other dogs, has this complete puppy attitude with people (except on our nightly walks) But he just reminds me of a extremely large pup who doesn't know his own strength.
Larger breeds take longer to mature. I wouldn't consider a GSD to be mature until at least 2. And different dogs mature at different rates.
My youngest Border Collie turned 2 in December and she is finally starting to get a bit more serious about life in general. My male was pretty serious and mature at about 18 m/o.
Not an expert, but yeah the eastern European lines do seem to mature slowly. Though I would rather say, oddly. That seems more apropos to me, oddly.
My DDR (the one on the left) doesn't seem he'll ever get out of puppyhood. One minute he's a full grown man the next he's all baby again. Shrug, one takes them as they come.
I would say it's not uncommon to see them still acting puppy-ish still. For some time to come yet actually... I have a female that is the same exact age(where did you get yours??) and she is still a lot of puppy. She sees a sleeve/bite builder she's a touch different but I wouldn't say she is mature yet.
My female is almost 9 months,,,and very very mouthy but not to the point of breaking the skin. Do they mature at 1 year or at 2, but i wouldnt trade her for anything,,she is strong at her age and bulky.
