A dog that knows what he is doing will not be overinterested until the bitch is ready. On the other hand he may be so inexperienced that he doesn't really get it at all, but that is less likely.
If it were my breed day 11 would be too early for most bitches, as day 14/15 seems to be most usual, with many bitches being later than that, though early bitches seem rarer. Talking to many breeders of different breeds bitches do seem ready later than they were years ago, whether this is because we tend to check for the first sign of colour before the season even starts, and therefore don't miss the first day. I would think that a bitch living the life of a pet indoors will be spotted in season sooner than one in a kennel.
