Dee Dee, check her out this weekend and then decide.  An older dog 
certainly makes it easier to train and raise a puppy.  You would have 
a built in baby sitter once the puppy is old enough.  If you take 
this girl, one consideration would be the sex of the pup, you have 
less problems with opposites getting along.

My maiden aunt girl was delighted to see a puppy arrive, she was much 
more tolerant than his real mom, she really did help raise him and 
today they adore each other.  And just think - you would already have 
the POTATO CHIP factor taken care of...............VBG.
