With help from Copper and Skye, we take a look at 10 reasons why you need an Alaskan Klee Kai in your life!
If you've ever seen an Alaskan Klee Kai, there's a pretty good chance you've mistaken one of these little dogs for a Pomsky, Husky puppy or a mix breed. Linda Spurlin started the Klee Kai in the late 1970s. They're a breed recognised by the UKC. They come in three different sizes and three main colors. Alaskan Klee Kai were bred to be companion sized Huskies. So they do well in apartments as long as they get sufficient exercise!

I love how Copper kept looking back at Sky during the talking demonstration, like "Sky... why aren't you backing me up? Tell em!"

[@luvly3662]

i was considering until the vocal part 😂

[@LifeWithKleeKai]

luvly I don’t want to put you off the breed based upon noisy Copper! He only really makes noise when he plays or I ‘talk’ to him. Other Klee Kai are less noisy and some may be more. Each dog is different!

[@MeissaMage]

lmaooooo same

[@khn2ilm]

My little Zelda hardly says a word. She's super quiet. No barking. She'll talk a little when she wants to play or go pee. Her little growl is the cutest thing ever!

[@kashsurf]

luvly me too lol that was crazy. Like where's the bark and why is the voice so high pitched. Sounded like a cry

[@tahliakaeli1256]

luvly My Klee Kai only talks if she’s locked inside and needs to go out to go toilet, or if we ask her to ‘speak’. Lots of dogs in my neighbourhood bark for no reason and it sets off a chain reaction of barking dogs but my klee kai is always curious and just listens to them :)

[@bkmedicool]

I started cracking up when Copper started talking 😂. He's got a lot to say lol

[@SFVgirl]

I did too! 🤣

[@hurricanecyt]

I used to have a Klee Kai German shepherd mix (rescue) and he was the best dog I ever had. He died a few months ago but he was for sure one of a kind and I will always miss him.

[@SFVgirl]

Aw, I'm sorry for your loss. I bet he was gorgeous, too. ❤️

[@ehheeajeshika]

I had no idea these were a type of breed when I first saw them I thought it was a chihuahua and husky mix they are so precious 🥰

[@Fent-]

I feel bad thinking of how often the dogs hear the words “Alaskan Klee Kai”

[@LifeWithKleeKai]

YRN TJ lol

[@TingleWood]

WOW! Love these two. I didn’t know about there existence. Was chatting with hubbs about how wonderful Huskies are and I would love to have one if they weren’t so big, and he surprised me and told me of miniature huskies and Alaskan Klee Kai. Your two are just gorgeous.

[@YaoiFan22]

Copper and Sky are adorable! 3:42 You got her excited now.

[@deuxforever13]

Beautiful gorgeous dogs man. Im glad i learnt about the alaskan klee kai. They have beautiful piercing eyes.

[@rox9069]

I rescued two yesterday. I'm loving them

[@thewhiteraven1021]

I have never owned a klee but I have had Huskies all my life and I love both breeds equally. But I hated when I had a 2 month old husky and people would ask if she was a pomsky which I do not like or agree with and I told them if I ever wanted a small husky I'd pick a klee over anything else your babies are beautiful!

[@LifeWithKleeKai]

TheWhiteRaven thank you!

[@jiniescat71]

I had never heard of this breed before, but I am so glad to hear about them. We are looking for a new puppy, and we love huskies, but I think this breed would be perfect for us as well. Thank you SO MUCH for sharing this information.

[@maitrangtran2775]

That heart exploding moment w tears in my eyes n a choked chuckle is priceless ... you guys are angels 😭❤ 2:31

[@nicholasself3532]

These vids make me happy I discovered AAK's thanks to mykie aka glam and gores pup Ripley but Skye and Copper are also amazing pups and I'm glad I found this channel

[@LifeWithKleeKai]

[@myrnamarquez8832]

They are soooooooo cute.

[@hornycatboydisaster]

My Klee Kai, Sheekie, doesn't bark that much, but she does squeal a lot when we go to greet her or come back from somewhere- hehe..

[@claire7004]

Has anyone else got this video as a suggestion after watching Glam and Gores new video with Ripley and Creature?

[@spyhunter66]

Nice list! We have 2 of our own and I have to agree with these for sure.

[@marxjenn1]

Charming dogs. Thanks for sharing.

[@meilimiller5200]

I saw this dog when he was 8 weeks old and the cutest puppy I’ve ever seen. I fell in love right away and bought it. My baby just turned 3 years on June 3rd, my husband and I love her so much! Very smart dog! 😍But she doesn’t like to cuddle or be pet!

[@Andrea-ro4ut]

I first saw one or 2 of these dogs on "The Ozbournes want to believe". Sweet dogs.

[@dineshanblazahan9843]

One and only reason to get them is , they are number one comedians … they make u laugh a aloud

[@MyName-sk8wl]

[@joshfredr7846]

Two angels.

[@jordanfletcher288]

I have 5 Klee Kai and 1 husky... they rock! Not for everyone but suit me just fine :)

[@nyla2408]

Alaskan Klee Kai As for Alaskan Klee Kai, they are a breed of their own. The breed was created by Linda Spurlin in the late 1970’s. She used 4 breeds through selective breeding and 20 years of dedication to achieve the look she visioned, a miniature version of the husky. The 4 breeds are Alaskan Husky, Siberian Husky, Schipperke and American Eskimo. The Alaskan Klee Kai became a recognized breed in 1997 with the United Kennel Club (UKC) and The American Rare Breed Association (ARBA). They usually weight between 10 to 25 pounds and come in a variety of colors. What is more, they tend to resemble Siberian Huskies more than Alaskan huskies. Klee Kai are also bred in three different sizes. They are as follows: Standard (15 to 17.5 inches)Miniature (13 to 15 inches)Toy (less than 13 inches) Miniature Husky The first Miniature Husky was bred by Bree Normandin during the 1990s. Miniature Husky puppies belong to the Siberian Huskies line and have been bred down in order to achieve the “miniature” size. They are, by essence, a result of an occurring mutation believed to be natural. In other words, they possess the same characteristics found in their older brothers and sisters. As far as the Siberian Husky Club of America Inc. and the AKC are concerned, the Miniature Husky breed is a name and nothing more. They do not recognize the Miniature Husky as a breed, nor a variety of Siberian Husky. According to Ms. Normandin the weight of a miniature husky is 15-30 lbs.

[@ouranoswealthgroup7042]

😂😂😂😂 sky rolling her eyes

[@J4A]

Beautiful dogs, I bet you're neighbors love you with the vocals! 🤣 Maybe good for Aparpment, but I counter that if its a vocal klee, some owners, most especially neighbors may take issue with that! 🤣💕

[@arahman3442]

omg both are so so cute just subbed.

[@AmandaTrips]

We have three dogs and a cat currently. We have a husky, German Shepherd mix cocker spaniel, and a chihuahua. Then my diluted black/brown tabby. I want to get one of these breeds of dogs in the future for me and my Grandma because she loves huskies and I love fluffy dogs. 💖

[@irisanegrete9565]

These are the toy size, there vocal cords will be very small in comparison to any larger dog.

[@AnonEyeMouse]

It was a surprise, as a Husky owner, to hear how high pitched Copper's voice is. I was expecting something similar to a Husky puppy of the same size, but it's noticeably higher. Lovely animals.
