Could you foster Mango? Ruth is going into treatment
Ruth must spend 3 weeks in hospital and needs a trusted person to foster Mango, a retriever.
🇰🇪 Likoni, Mombasa, Kenya460 views
I'm going into inpatient treatment on Thursday, for about 3 weeks, and I have no family nearby to look after Mango, my four-year-old retriever. Mango is a bit shy at first but really affectionate.
I'm looking for a temporary foster within Likoni. I'll provide food, bedding and medication, and cover the vet costs. Mango is vaccinated, neutered and microchipped.
I'd love to share regular updates and photos, and I'd love to pay it forward by volunteering at the shelter when I'm better.
Thank you for reading my story.

So sorry you're going through this, Ruth. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I'm in construction myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.
Take care, Ruth. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We're a small family in Londrina but we're thinking of you
You're not alone, Ruth. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Take care.
Best of luck, Ruth. Shared it with a few friends. Love from Seville.
Hope it all works out, Ruth. We've got a rescue too so I know how much they mean.
Sending love, Ruth. Poor Mango, hope they feel better soon. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Greetings from Newport.
