I'm going into inpatient treatment on Tuesday, for about 5 weeks, and I have no family nearby to look after Biscuit, my eleven-year-old terrier mix. Biscuit is gentle, house-trained, good with children and other animals. I'm looking for a temporary foster within Dar es Salaam. I'll provide food, bedding and medication, and cover the vet costs. Biscuit 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.
