Larger dogs typically "mature" around 2 years, give or take a month or 6...however, if you've been blessed with a particularly goofy pup, it might be more like 10 years before it settles down

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

No matter what the breed, a puppy is a puppy until it is at least 1.5 years old. Sometimes longer. Just because it appears adult size, the maturity level is still way down there, especially at 9 months. So if you're asking about "growing into a mature dog" regarding its size, especially if it is related to a German Shepherd (looks like), probably 3 or 4 more months. If you're asking about "growing into a mature dog" behaviorally, you'll need to be patient for about a year. Meanwhile, enjoy this beautiful dog.
