She has moderate energy, loves playtime, and settles beautifully once she’s had her daily exercise. Social, gentle, and easygoing, she’s great with other dogs and wonderfully patient with kids. Gwendolyn thrives with basic puppy structure and is eager to learn, bond, and become part of a family’s routine.

Story

💕 Kiara – Sweet, Shy, and Ready for Her First Real Family 💕 Kiara came to us after growing up as part of an oopsie litter of backyard dogs, which meant she didn’t get the early socialization most puppies receive. Because of that, the world felt a little big and overwhelming at first — but with patient guidance and lots of love at K9netic Pack, she has absolutely blossomed. Kiara has gone from a fearful girl to a confident, curious, incredibly sweet dog who truly wants to connect with people. Once she warms up, she becomes affectionate, loving, and so eager to be part of your world. She has a gentle soul, a working-breed brain, and a heart that melts the moment she trusts you. She is still building her dog-to-dog social skills, so slow introductions are best. She’s dog selective, but she may do well with a calm, neutral, dog-savvy companion who won’t overwhelm her. She would also be perfectly happy as the only dog, soaking up all your attention. Kiara LOVES kids, but because she can be a little shy and startles easily, we recommend a home with children 10 and older simply to ensure a calm, predictable environment as she continues growing in confidence. Kiara is the kind of dog who will bond deeply, love fiercely, and blossom beautifully with a patient, kind family. She’s ready for a forever home full of love, stability, and gentle encouragement — the kind of home she’s never had before. 💖 📍 Located in Poolesville, MD 🐾 Spayed, fully vetted, and professionally trained ✨ Adoption includes post-adoption support through K9netic Pack Apply to adopt Kiara: www.underdogdivision.org

Story

Meet Chelsea, a 4-year-old Pit Bull/Shepherd mix who may take her time warming up, but once she does, she’ll absolutely steal your heart. She’s a reserved girl at first glance—thoughtful, observant, and careful with new people—but when she decides you’re safe, she transforms into a full-on love bug who leans in for affection, follows you around, and forms a deep, loyal bond that feels genuinely earned. Chelsea isn’t a match for homes with cats, and she can be selective with other dogs, so she’ll thrive best with adopters who appreciate her boundaries and can give her a calm, structured environment where she can feel secure. She doesn’t want chaos—she wants connection. And if you’re willing to give her a little time to trust, you’ll discover a dog who gives her whole heart back. Come meet Chelsea and see why the people who know her can’t stop rooting for her. She’s ready for her person—she’s just waiting for you.
