at 12 months of age he should be on an adult food.

without an xray you cant rule out hip problems just beacause his littermates are sound dosent mean he is. perhaps talk to your vet and get some xrays done (im shure that they can) and submit the xrays on this forum

even without xrays i can tell you that building up muscle is crutial even in dogs with hip problems , 

pulling will only build muscle but you must start off slowly 

if you are still worried then swim him even in dogs with servere hip dysplasia this is the best form of exercise.
