A new dog in my life

I have a new dog in my life, a year old German Shepherd name Bruno and it was love at first site. A co worker of my sister's had him fostering him and she was glad it was me that I got him. He came up to me and socialized very well telling her I wanted him, I let Bruno come up to me. My sister even saw it happen, she told me about it and knew I love German Shepherds which started when I was kid even after we immigrated from Germany to the USA when I was 8 years old with our parents. He is doing well in my home now and has found his spot beside my bed already, Getting used to things at his new home.Taking him to work with me tomorrow. I had one before, a female that was 12 years old that I made the painful decision to put her down in March. Back legs gave out and told the vet put her down not wanting to see her in pain. She had the look saying it was her time to go and I gave her the love and a good long life, I did tear up saying goodbye to her before she was put down. I had her cremated and have her ashes in an urn.
