Yes. But i have seen crazily aggressive wild and wicked gsd. I weak that day. So I think it is training ot genes.

Just the sight and size of a dog like a neo sends fear in many

Dogs being aggressive is hereditary, mastiff dogs are just scary to strangers based in their size, but many are docile and friendly in nature. Train your dog, and he'll be exactly what you want.

For the fact that your gsd isn't aggressive,it is quite possible when you get a neopolitan mastiff is not going to be aggressive as well, from my own view,you must have socialize your current dog that could be the reason for him not to be aggressive.

Had in been the OP didn't post the image of his gsd,I would be thinking it may not be a pure bred gsd.

Hereditary has nothing to do with this, gsd are known to be a guard dog,it might be the OP's fault.

I have another gsd but he's very protective and level headed only barking when the need arises but still doesn't play with strange people which I like, the problem ain't with me

your GSD is still very much young to expect all these from him sir. he's just a juvenile already craving to explore life but still unsure of his physical strength and attributes. You should have it at the back of ur mind that a full mentally and physically matured GSD takes upto 2-3yrs. At this young age of 11 months he's still acts like a puppy, all you have to do is to enjoy his playful puppyhood nature while it last, a time will come when u would wish he was still that little puppy that's extraordinary cute and troublesome.

Hello op, your dog is quite young but still not too young to bark. Different dogs bark at different times due to their Gene's, training or the influence of another alpha dog that barks around them.
My first dog a gsd is really good at barking, he could do it for as long as it is required of him. He doesnt get tired. I noticed that the second dog a rottweiler, that was friendly and super playful was influenced and had started barking by the 7th month, even the new addition, a samoyed, although older barks more than it usually did when it arrived because of the influence of the other 2 dogs.
So maybe in addition to what everyone has said , you may need your dog to be around another one that barks and you will be surprised that your dog has alot of barks in it more than you can imagine.
I would have loved to help but I presently dont have space for an additional dog as I already has three with me.
Lastly, pls dont sell your dog, you have a lovely dog there, just give it time and if you want it barking soon, contact me and let see what we can work out . But then as a last thought you may want to find out info about its parents, if they do bark then it's only a matter of time or circumstances and your dog will start to bark and if you need it to, it will start to be aggresive
