Brooklyn's new best friend and enemy

We bought a puppy a few days ago. It is a German Shepherd. She is a girl, and at this point we cannot think of any names for her. If anyone can think of a name let us know, we would love some suggestions!

The new puppy is the grandaughter of the other German Shepherd that already lives here (we are "dog-sitting" a German Shepherd and a Cocker Spaniel for other missionaries). Betje, the other German Shepherd, has really taken on a motherly role and grown quite fond of the new addition while the Cocker Spaniel acts a little put out that she isn't getting all the attention from Brooklyn any more.

Brooklyn is in puppy heaven. She carries that little puppy all over the place. I think the puppy might forget how to walk if we don't put a stop to it soon. Brooklyn has learned that dogs do have teeth. Like all puppies, ours has little sharp teeth waiting to bite into the nearest ankle or shoe but Brooklyn has gotten pretty quick at picking the puppy up before it starts biting at her toes! Over all, the new pup has been a lot of fun.
Here are the new friends on our back walkway. The other two dogs are in the background.
