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.

Volunteer of the Year 2010
Taz arrived just after Katherine-Rose was born, and was definitely a challenge to work with. He was an owner surrender who was healthy, had complete records, but was extremely fearful and aggressive dog toward strangers. Jay drove 75 miles each way to pick up Taz. Cared for him, evaluated him, and after enough time had passed with evaluating his temperament, he found the perfect forever home in Arizona. Takoda is a completely different story who arrived the week before Christmas. Without hesitation Jay picked him up. Was there ever a doubt? Certainly not! He came to Jay with no records whatsoever, a debilitating eye condition, is in need of socialization, and was saved only by the fact that both shelters he was taken to refused to take him because of overcrowding (one was a kill shelter). We are grateful this sweet little guy has been blessed with finding his forever home with AKKNR as he is going to make a wonderful companion to come home to. Jay wants to especially thank his wife, Genevieve as he certainly hasn’t acted alone in his rescue efforts. His wife plays a key role in allowing them to do what we do, which hasn't been easy. The BOD aren’t quite sure where they find the time with a newborn, working full-time, a pack Alaskan Klee Kai of their own to volunteer, but we are grateful. Needless to say their dedication to rescue exemplifies their commitment to the Alaskan Klee Kai Breed and our community. We certainly could use more volunteers as willing and dedicated, as they a rare breed.
