Think of activities to do that will help him adjust to his new home. I'm a heavy advocate for walking, taking my pups for about a 3 mile walk every other day. I recommend a harness instead of a collar. I use a retractable leash but there was some controversy surrounding those that I did not follow.

Simple walking gives good exercise and helps with bonding.
Might want to take it easy while recovering from the cough, and to avoid spreading it to other doggies.

Thank you for giving this fellow a loving home. I agree with everyone above that he is likely quiet because of the big changes in his life and after spending 3 weeks in the shelter.

Just give him lots of love and patience and he will come around.

We brought Teddy home from our breeder when he was 8 months old. He was so quiet and eager to please. Over time he started asserting himself and developed quite a voice.
