Hello.  Thats a little bit like saying, I have a child.  Im going to foster another child.  Will they get on?   - of course, personality plays a part.   Another thing that plays a part is the life experience of each animal so far - and finally, how sensitively they are introduced.   It is nicer for your dog if another dog doesnt just randomly show up in their territory.  Maybe take them out and have them get to know each other first?  - and introduce them slowly, ideally over several meetings.  Talk to your vets for specific behavioural adbice about mealtimes and so on.  Does your behavioural understanding of your dogs  guarentee that they'll get on?  No, but it may improve the chances a lot.
