when do male gsd reach sexual maturity "fertility"?
 
was wondering at what approximate age do male german shepherds reach sexual maturity and are fertile?
the reason i am asking is that my 9 month old boy is showing extreme interest in our neighbor's bitch who happens to be in heat!! is this normal?!
thanks in advance :)

It can be normal depending on the male and he can very likely be fertile. Keep him separated from the neighbor's female. :)

Yep, normal. I know of a St. Bernard who sired a litter at 6 months of age so keep an eye on your male dog.
