Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Periwinkle is in a foster home searching for her forever family! If you are interested in meeting her, copy, paste, and complete the link below. This will be sent to the foster family for follow-up: https://greenvillefosterteam.tiny.us/meetyourmatch
. You can also call or text the Lifesaving Team at 864-467-3985.
Periwinkle has truly settled beautifully into home life! She is friendly, gentle, and quietly affectionate with a soft, sweet personality. She loves meeting people, including kids, and enjoys spending her time cuddling or calmly exploring her surroundings. She’s fully housetrained, sleeps quietly through the night, and fits easily into just about any home. Periwinkle doesn’t bark—she only makes the cutest little happy grunts—and is an easy, loving companion.
—Best suited for: Either is fine
—Training: Fully housetrained; previously crate trained; knows sit, comes when called, and sits at doors
—Alone time: 4–5 hours; loose in the house; no separation anxiety noted
—Leash manners: Very strong puller; leash skills still need work
—Energy level: Medium; enjoys play and walks but settles easily
—Personality: Affectionate, Chill, Gentle, Quiet, Shy, Snuggly, Well-mannered
—Favorite activities: Cuddling, exploring/sniffing around, plush toys, chews, evening snuggles
—Top treat/food: Dry food; enjoys treats and chews
—Dog interactions: Friendly, gentle, and playful; reads other dogs’ energy well and is comfortable sharing space
—Fun facts: Never barks—only makes cute grunts; avoids storm drains; has loved meeting kids; sleeps all night in her dog bed; does not enjoy car rides
Adoption includes vaccines, deworming, flea treatment, microchip, heartworm test, and spay/neuter.
