Conan is doing well.  He seems to be getting more comfortable each day.  He is bonding well with me and getting to know the boys and my husband still.  He is a very sweet boy, but a bit jumpy.  Silly things like taking the cover off the barbeque scares him, and any loud noises make him jump.  Beyond that we are working on coming to me, and his manners on a leash, and he is progressing.  I have not looked into classes just yet, just trying to figure him out and him us.

I can see his hip being a problem sooner than we wanted.  You can hear it catch when he moves, almost a clunking sound in his hip when walking and trotting.  I will sent photos when I get some good ones. Lisa had him shaved, so he looks a bit bald right now.
