Could you foster Oscar? Lauren is going into treatment
Lauren must spend 5 weeks in hospital and needs a trusted person to foster Oscar, a labrador.
🇺🇸 New Mexico, United States177 views
I'm going into hospital for surgery on Sunday, for about 5 weeks, and I have no family nearby to look after Oscar, my seven-year-old labrador. Oscar is a bit shy at first but really affectionate.
I'm looking for a temporary foster within Las Cruces. I'll provide food, bedding and medication, and cover the vet costs. Oscar 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.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I went through something like this 14 years ago and strangers helped me out.
sending love. Looking forward to the next update. I have a 16 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Love from Swansea
wishing you peace, Lauren. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Wish I lived closer to Syracuse so I could bring a meal. Take care.
Thinking of you. This could happen to any of us. Love from Pittsburgh.
Wishing you the best. I hope things turn around soon. Put this on a community board in Barranquilla this morning. Greetings from Barranquilla.
Praying for you, Lauren. This could happen to any of us. Take care
