Same sex agression

Question:

I just got an 11 wk old JRT female and I already have a 10 year old very laid back German Shephard. My other GSD dog passed away at 12 yrs. So I felt Missy my GSD was lonely as she has never been alone. She went from her mother at 10 mos of age to our then 3 yr old GSD. Then over the summer I got a 7 mo old Bloodhound she sure was beautiful but she litraly ate my house up.My GDS and the Bloodhound got along fine. So I know my GSD will be ok. I sent the Bloodhound to Man Trailers of Maine a search and rescue group. She is very haoppy up there I hear. So I guess my question is my puppy will grow up with this older dog
and hopefully not become agressive. She is very good now of course I have only had her for a week.
Is this a dumb thing to think about so soon. I keep reading things about this.
To anyone that can shed some light or look into a crystal ball please let me know.
Thanks we already love her so. Her name is Lucy.
