Alaskan Klee Kai National Rescue
Mission
Alaskan Klee Kai National Rescue, Inc., is the national rescue organization for the Alaskan Klee Kai dog breed.
We take in abandoned, abused, neglected, and owner surrendered Alaskan Klee Kai. We work with other rescues and shelters to find Alaskan Klee Kai suitable forever homes. We provide foster homes for rescued Alaskan Klee Kai that need a place to stay while they are waiting for their forever home, as well as work on socialization, training, and obtain any needed veterinary care. We screen all potential homes carefully, to ensure each Rescued Alaskan Klee Kai gets its perfect forever home.
Our goal is to help all Alaskan Klee Kai that need to be helped, and help them find wonderful homes where they will be healthy and happy for their entire lifetime.
Help WantedAKKNR Treasurer Needed! Our current wonderful Treasurer, Hannah, has made the decision that it is time for her to move on. We thank her for all she's done for AKKNR in the years she has been a part of our BOD, and wish her all the best! AKKNR is searching for someone to take over this volunteer position and serve as an officer on the Board of Directors. Please be aware that this does require a considerable amount of responsibility and commitment. If you are interested, please contact AKKNR BOD at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it . We will be glad to send you a job description and respond to any questions you may have about the Treasurer position. Experience with finances, taxes, and 501(c)3 would be great, but not required. **Bandit and Chazzy are ready for a home!**
This bonded pair were surrendered by their owner, whose life circumstances made them unable to properly care for them. These intelligent 6 year old AKK are housebroken and know basic commands. They come when called in the house or yard, and use dog doors. They are food motivated and social with people. They have not yet been kid tested in the foster environment, but their previous owner claims they do great with kids. They also have high prey drive – rabbits, squirrels, cats. Some dogs give chase to cats outside, but don’t bother a confident cat in the house. These 2 haven’t been cat-tested in their foster environment yet, so we’re unsure. They will quickly take ownership of their home, giving a few steady barks at people &/or animals as they pass by the house/yard. When you’re not at home/at night, they are used to being crated together, but would prefer to have the run of the house/yard (once Chazzy proves he will stay in the yard). They both ride well in the car – they just lay down and take a nap. A bit leery of strangers, both dogs may take just a few minutes to warm up to you as a new, safe person. Within a day or so, they are likely to act like they’ve been part of the family for years.
CHASSIS
BANDIT is a VERY dominant female. She will not do well with dominant dogs of either sex. She is a cuddle-bug, and could stand to lose a few pounds. She loves nothing more than being pet. She enjoys walks, as long as you don’t run. She immediately gets vocally distressed if separated from Chassis. She “mother-hens” him, and can get pushy and demanding, i.e., “pet me!!” and “me first!!” She may appear initially non-compliant &/or unresponsive. She is testing you!!! It will be important to implement pack hierarchy immediately. You are the first person in the door, thru the gate, etc. She only gets pets AFTER she sits. Setting the stage with these tough love basics will set you all up for long term success. She will need a strong pack leader to ensure she remains happy and well-adjusted. Otherwise she will take all matters into her own hands. With an experienced leader, you won’t find a more loving pack member!
Chazzy and Bandit are located in Colorado Springs, CO. If you think Bandit and Chazzy are the new family members you're looking for, please visit our website to submit an adoption application and be sure to note that it is for Bandit and Chazzy. If you already have an application on file with us, drop us a line and let us know of your interest and we'll pull up your application for review.
Mia - ADOPTED**Mia has been adopted**
Mia is a 4 year old, Toy size, Alaskan Klee Kai weighing about 11lbs. She is very social, loving, friendly, and outgoing. Does well with kids and other dogs.
NO cats, NO small animals. She does have a high prey drive with small animals and has been tested around cats, she does not do well with them. Mia does get excitable on leash when seeing other dogs (not aggression). Her foster mom/trainer will provide some tips for this when she goes to her new home and is with her new owners.
Mia is completely house broken and crate trained, she knows how to use a dog door and/or sits by the door asking to go out. The first week or so in any new environment and new home with any new dog, there may be accidents while they adjust to their new routine.
Mia is moderate to high energy. Despite her size, she would make a great companion for an active family who will include her into their life and activities.
