History
The Alaskan Klee Kai was developed in Alaska by Linda Spurlin and her family, to be a companion-sized version of the Alaskan Husky. From the early 70’s through 1988, the Spurlins carefully selected dogs who met their high standards for appearance and soundness. In 1988, they made the Alaskan Klee Kai available to others. Mrs. Spurlin originally called her new breed the “Klee Kai” but in 1995, it was changed to “Alaskan Klee Kai.” The Alaskan Klee Kai is still extremely rare.
The Alaskan Klee Kai was recognized by the United Kennel Club January 1, 1997.
The Elusive Miniature Siberian Husky
I’ve had an interest in Siberian Huskies since 1994 and I’ve read whatever I could get my hands on, about Huskies, throughout the years. Much to my surprise, I have not heard of miniature Siberian Huskies until the Spring of 2005. I do not have any books on Miniature Siberian Huskies and unfortunately I was not able to find much information online either.
I found only one site, 
minihuskies.net, owned by miniature Siberian Husky breeders. In their brief frequently asked questions section, they state their puppies are indeed a miniature version of the Siberian Husky breed, and are not related to the Alaskan Klee Kai breed. Now you might wonder, what exactly is an Alaskan Klee Kai?
