Alaskan Klee Kai

The Alaskan Klee Kai is a relatively new breed of dog, developed in the 1970s.

Breeder Linda Spurlin sought to create a companion-sized version of the Alaskan Husky, and thus the Alaskan Klee Kai was born.

This small but mighty breed is known for its intelligence, loyalty, and playful nature.

They are highly trainable and make excellent family pets, as they are affectionate and devoted to their owners.

The Alaskan Klee Kai is an active breed that loves to run and play, and requires regular exercise and mental stimulation.

They are also known for their striking appearance, with their pointed ears, almond-shaped eyes, and thick double coat.

The Alaskan Klee Kai is still a rare breed, but its popularity is growing as more people discover this unique and lovable breed.
