well he has since been renamed Zeke and is really starting to settle in. This poor guy had never been inside of a house before I don't think and was in stimulation overload after arriving. He is VERY smart and even though he does bark at things like the vacume or the hand drill, once I show him they are ok he is fine. He is very sure of himself, VERY. There were some conflicts between him and my female shepherd but once she put him in his place for the third time he finally left her alone.
He now eats with the other dogs and stays at his bowl, sits for his meal and is used to his crate. I am very happy I decided to adopt him. I had been wanting a male shepherd and was thinking about buying a puppy. This guy may be a little more work but he is exactly what I wanted.
He was really thin when I got him too at only 51 pounds, after a vet visit they discovered he had worms so he is being treated for that. I got SO many compliments on how well behaved he was at the vets, from the vet and the people out in the waiting room. Of course I had to chime in he was a rescue

Here is a pic of Zeke after a few laps around our pond.
I will upload more as I take them
