I think a sibling is a good idea but I would see how she does first by bringing another dog into your home with her. She may do great at your sister's house but some dogs act different when a new dog is brought into their territory...sometimes is't great at first but once they realize the new dog is staying some will show their attitude, especially if the new dog tries to get close to you. Some dogs do well with others no matter what the situation but since your girls is already 5 and used to being the only one there with you I would test her in different ways to be sure it will be o.k.

Good luck!
