Oh poor little girl! Sorry to hear that. I think it would help as long as it is a dog with the same demeanor and activity level. Companionship would be good for Peanut but I would recommend that you foster first to make sure it will be a good match. Try a dog of a similar age and definitely not a puppy. Best of luck with peanut!
