A little about the Alaskan Klee Kai
The Alaskan Klee Kai originated as a cross between Alaskan and Siberian Huskies to be a 'mini husky', in fact, 'Klee Kai' means 'little dog' in Inuit. It is a highly intelligent breed that does well in obedience and agility competitions. It has a striking appearance, where its eyes are often of different colours. However, it can be reserved with strangers, requires lots of socialisation and like many Huskies can be quite vocal.
