I will email you the information that I have with some of those things, but to answer in short.

Malaria is dangerous anywhere in Tanzania, but prevention is manageable, and possible, and treatment is available. I have some answers to the frequently asked questions regarding malaria on my website. The True Tanzania.

I know there is the usual dog food in Arusha, and Dar Es Salaam, the hard kind in pieces, you can get it sent to Dodoma by bus if you can't find it where you will be living. There is also another kind that in a powered form that you have to cook. The "normal" dog food will probably be more expensive than what you are currently paying.

If there is a dairy in Dodoma then fresh Cow's milk will be  available, usually in small bags, that you can buy. All over Tanzania you can buy milk in a box or dry powered milk that you mix with water.

Electricity prices have just increased dramatically here. There is only one electric company that powers the entire country.And they chose to majorly increase prices. News Article Here

It is hard to say how much power would cost for one person. We are family with 4 kids, and keep security lights on all night, use a washing machine and dryer, have a large refrigerator, and freezer, we are expecting that our electric bill, after the increase, will be about 250,000 tzs which is less than $200 usd. So for a single person I would say way, way lower than that of course.

This is without power outages. Last year there was a big power ration, and the power was off for more than 12hrs a day, every third day. The bill was of course a lot lower for us then.

Ha, and this was my short answer. :-)
