We've adopted multiple fosters over the years of all ages and I can say that it absolutely depends on the individual dog's temperament and the temperament of the pack you have at home. I won't say it's always been easy to acclimate them to their new surroundings, but it can be done with patience.
Ask which ever organization you are considering adopting from about the personality of the dog. If the dog has been fostered for a while, they will have a good idea if he/she would do better in a single dog home or with others. I did find that it took a tad bit longer to have an older dog adjust to the younger one, but it has always worked out for us.
Good luck.
