Default HELP! 17 year old Yorkie in Georgia needs help

Is there anyone in or near Monroe, Georgia that can help me? I was just made aware of a 17 year old Yorkie dumped at a kill shelter when his owners went to assisted living. I'm horrified - This baby boy needs a soft bed, and love, not a jail cell! I'm strapped financially after Benjamin's initial expenses, and the emergency vet care for Gina, as well as her euthanasia and cremation, but I've got to find a way to get him out of there - Is there anyone in the area? Or anyone willing to help me out? I'd be happy to welcome him here and let him live out his final days in love and comfort as I've done for many seniors before him - But I wouldn't want to see such an old Yorkie shipped, I'd probably need to raise enough to cover a plane ticket for me to fly to Georgia to collect him, pay vet expenses there for a health certificate and whatever he needs prior to travel, and then vet expenses once I get him here. I'll see if I can post the picture - It broke my heart, he's matted so bad you can barely tell he's a York, so unless he has no teeth, I'm sure he'll need a major dental, if he's healthy enough to undergo anesthesia, and a full senior wellness panel at the very least. I'm sure I'm easily talking about $1500 or more for the expenses to get him here, and get any and all medical needs taken care of. I just can't bare the thought of a 17 year old dying in a kill shelter, he deserves to live out his last days with someone who loves him! Or if there's someone closer that can go get him and love him - let me know and I'll get you the information!!!! I just really want to see this guy make it out of the shelter!
