They Will Also Start To Look Too Small For The Puppy’s Mouth.
If you are trying to determine your potty training schedule, as a general guideline, take your puppy’s age in months and then divide it in half to determine how long they can go in between potty breaks. Most dogs become sexually mature by 6 months when they're still in the puppy stage of development — both physically. Look for a full set of baby teeth.

This Is Normal Developmental Behavior.
Some breeds have been documented to reach full maturity at closer to 24 months of age and some of them even older than that. Like humans, dogs transition from baby to adult in stages — though the transition happens much more quickly for dogs. The adolescent period typically begins around six months of age, and will be over when a dog reaches physical maturity around two to three years old.
A Dog Is Generally Referred To As A Puppy Before The Age Of A Year.
By definition, a puppy should not be sexually mature since it is still growing. Like teenagers, they may seem to “forget” the rules or commands that they once followed. Each additional year is equal to about four or five human years.
Puppies At This Age May Still Have A Lot Of Playful Energy.
Tiny and toy breeds don't become seniors until around age 10. Puppies, though, are sexually capable after few months of age and can (and do) produce puppies while still growing themselves. Your puppy becomes an adult as soon as he reaches the seventh and final stage of growth.
