Del Mar Alaskan Klee Kai Blog

FIND A REAL ALASKAN KLEE KAI PUPPY

There are many scams and puppy mills online, so do your research! All Alaskan Klee Kai dogs at Del Mar are UKC and AKC/FSS registered. We recommend reading the UKC Breed Standard and AKC/FSS Breed Standard to know what a true Alaskan Klee Kai should look like. Join the AKKCOA and AKKAOA breed clubs, and look for small hobby breeders focused on improving the breed through pedigree enhancement and health screening. Ask Questions! How many dogs do they have? What health screening do they do? What titles have they earned? What is their track record for breeding quality dogs? Arctic Minis – Alaskan Klee Kai of Del Mar is focused on quality over quantity. See our AWARDS PAGE.

PUPPY-PROOF YOUR HOME

To keep your Alaskan Klee Kai puppy safe, start by puppy-proofing your home. Safeguard all electrical cords and remove any small objects they might swallow. Did you know that a piece of floss, chocolate, or foil can harm your puppy? Creating a secure space is essential. We recommend spare gated rooms or cross pens to create a safe environment for their puppy while it grows.

CHEW TOY ESSENTIALS FOR ALASKAN KLEE KAI

Like teething human babies, your Alaskan Klee Kai puppy will also undergo a teething phase. During this phase, they will want to put everything in their mouths. Be sure to have a variety of soft and moderately hard chew toys readily available to help them soothe their sore gums and help those baby teeth fall out. If they have retained teeth by nine months old, ask the vet to remove them during the spay/neuter procedure. We like to use raw beef or lamb femur bones. We do not recommend smoked treats as they stain teeth.

POTTY TRAINING YOUR ALASKAN KLEE KAI PUPPY

When potty training your Alaskan Klee Kai puppy, it’s crucial to consider a method that aligns with your lifestyle and living space. Your daily routine and availability for training sessions and bathroom breaks significantly determine the most suitable approach. You’ll have more training options if you have a flexible schedule that allows frequent outdoor excursions. However, if you work long hours, it’s worth exploring methods that accommodate indoor potty training in a designated area within your home.

Additionally, the size and layout of your living environment are essential factors to weigh in your decision. If you’re residing in an apartment without immediate access to outdoor spaces, indoor training methods like puppy pads, a litter box, or a designated indoor potty area become practical solutions.

If you are uncertain which potty training method is best for your Alaskan Klee Kai, consider seeking guidance from a professional dog trainer or certified behaviorist. These experts can offer personalized advice tailored to your specific circumstances and the needs of your beloved Alaskan Klee Kai puppy.

TRAINING IS IMPERATIVE FOR ALASKAN KLEE KAI

Unlocking the full potential of your bond with an Alaskan Klee Kai begins with training! These intelligent and inquisitive dogs thrive on clear communication and positive interaction. Through effective training, you’ll establish a mutual language, enhancing understanding between you and your furry friend. Trust blooms as your Alaskan Klee Kai learns to obey commands, relying on your guidance and forming a loyal connection. Positive interactions during training sessions create many cherished moments, forging a lasting bond.
