Anna TX: Rescue or sponsor or donate for Leona

Visit Picassa album to view 8 photos: http://picasaweb.google.com/lizardmarsh/LeonaOfAnna#

10/31 update from DeDe: "Heartworm negative!!! Whoo Hooo!!! Just some nasty hooks and whips, easy fix. She weighs 36lbs and is thin, so she should be a 40ish lb dog. Vet thinks she is about 3yrs old."

Alrighty, no one has spoken up for this sweetie. I cannot bring her in to Collin County Humane Society b/c I am at my foster limit and none of our other fosters can take her.
I am willing to keep her if someone can sponsor her through their rescue or if I could get donations to my vet to get her vetted.
I just cannot take her to the shelter only for me to be begging for her life in five days. She is a very special little girl, who by god if it kills me...her luck is going to change.
Please if you can donate below is my vet's info. Just give them my name and tell them it is for Leona. Please can anyone help me help her?

Subject: Avail-ME-Found dog dutch shepard mix-breed id???
Got a call fm my vets office about dumped/found dog of 121 in Anna, could I help? I did my usual send me pics and info, yada yada and then the lady said "she would go out and try and find her to get pics!"
What??? Thats right, they left this poor girl on a cold wet very busy highway. So needless to say she is at my house. I cannot foster her b/c I am at foster limit. If I take her to Collin County she will be put down. So pls can anyone make room for her?
So far she seems to be good w/ other dogs and she loves kids. She was starving and has woofed down two bowls of food. She may know some basic commands too, further testing required. I asked her to sit for her pic and she did. She is about 3-4yrs. Had quite a few litters. She is small, maybe 20-25lbs.
Here are pics, let me know if you can help......
