White​ Alaskan Klee Kai Puppies for sale Nationwide

The Alaskan Klee Kai, whose name means "little dog" or "small dog" in Inuit, is a relatively new spitz-type breed developed in Wasilla, Alaska during the 1970s to be a smaller companion version of the Alaskan Husky. Created by one woman and her family through careful breeding of Huskies, American Eskimos, and Schipperkes, the breed became publicly available in 1988 and was officially recognized by the United Kennel Club in 1997, though not yet by the American Kennel Club. Physically resembling a miniature Siberian Husky, Alaskan Klee Kais feature a thick double coat in black and white, gray and white, or red and white color combinations with moderate year-round shedding that becomes heavy twice annually during seasonal coat blowing.
Alert, intelligent, and naturally curious, Alaskan Klee Kais tend to be shy and cautious around strangers, requiring extensive socialization throughout their lives to be friendly with new people, though this wariness makes them excellent watchdogs. They are loyal family companions but have a tendency to bark more than average dogs, especially when their needs aren't met, making them less ideal for apartment living. Energetic and lively, these dogs require substantial daily exercise including free play in fenced yards or long walks on leash, as insufficient activity can lead to restlessness or anxiety. Their dense, dirt-repelling coat needs brushing 1-2 times weekly with bathing only necessary a few times per year unless their curiosity gets them particularly messy.
