I am so sorry for your loss. Just getting a new puppy won’t necessarily fix your other dogs depression because you can’t just replace his sister. Also the Alpha theory has been long debunked. There isn’t necessarily an alpha in a pack or a hierarchy per say. Normally the oldest is the one that respected due to age in the pack so a new puppy won’t just come in and be an alpha for many reasons and they may not even have that personality. Reputable breeders don’t post on puppyfind nor do they breed a female under 4 pounds so with that said I’m sure they didn’t do anything else reputable breeders do like health testing. What you are saying happened to the puppy is bloat and that is not normal in a yorkie so either something else went on or there might be something genetically wrong with that puppy.
