We were only going to get one puppy, but I caved in and we took two. They are great companions for each other for sure.
When I was young, we had just the one dog, but she went everywhere with us and was rarely alone for more than an hour, so I don't think she ever missed a canine companion (she also thought she was a person) in the house. She got along fine with the cat and the rabbit we got, but was less enthused about the doberman puppy-but the first dog was 16 at the time and not tolerant of puppy play.
I would introduce another dog as soon as possible if you are going to, before Precious gets too used to being the only dog.
If they are s/n, I don't think gender matters. It's more of a personality thing. If Precious is very dominant, there might be some going at first.
