Do you mean just in general, or from the point of view of showing?

If it's showing, then 12 months is the cut off point.

In general, though, it really depends on the type of dog. The smaller breeds mature more quickly & can be called adult at about 10-12 months, whereas the larger breeds are still immature at 18 months.

Mine will always be puppies to me even though Mia is 5.5 and Harley is 18 months.

Yup, Dempsey's a big baby! To me he probably always will be, though people never believe me when I tell them how old he is. Sad
