This week’s Tails Pet of the Week is Periwinkle! She’s a 6-year-old sweetheart and about 50 pounds of pure friendliness. She loves meeting people, is very treat motivated (not picky at all!), and already knows sit and shake—with either paw, thank you very much 💛

Periwinkle enjoys walks, exploring, and soaking up all the smells around her. She’s great on leash and happiest just being near her people. And if you really want to win her over? Butt scratches are the way to her heart!

She’s a social, slightly silly girl who just wants to be close and share life’s little moments. All she needs is someone to give her that chance — and she’ll be your loyal, loving companion. 🐾💛
