Oh, that looks pretty. I love dogs. Mine is a lab/german shepherd mix. I wanna get another one as soon as week can move.

I am thinking German Shepherd, but I might just go for another mutt.

I have never heard of that dog breed before. What did it say about temperament?

This is what two of the sites say about them...

"They are very good with small children and even babies. There have been reports of Klee Kai watching the baby in the house then going out to get the parent when the baby cried. There have been reports of the Alaskan Klee Kai who lived when they should have been dead."

Open Original Shared Link

"Despite his small size, the Klee Kai is an excellent watchdog due to his loyalty and affection for his family members and his reservation toward strangers and unfamiliar situations."

Man if they weren't so darn rare and soooooooooo darn expensive, I'd be getting one right now :(

Sounds good. Yeah, I was loking at Shilo German Shepherds before we got our dog and some places want $2000 for one. I am not paying that much for a dog. We paid $80 for our mutt and she is wounderful.

Contact the breeder. Not every dog is show quality, maybe the runt of the litter, or an older dog that is too old for puppies, or a young female born with a hernia would be a resonable price and a good breeder would want a loving home.

I actually did a write up about these dogs for my "rare dog" section of the Kennel Club newsletter about a year ago. A very beautiful and interesting little dog for sure.

But yes, rare does mean expensive, although you may get a pet grade one for a bit cheaper. Maybe check into the American Eskimo if you like the northern breeds. They are not quite so rare, so may be a bit more to a budget. They were used in the years gone by as Cirucus dogs because they train so easily. You'll want the minature of the breed. (There are three sizes), standard, Min. and toy. Super obedience and agility dogs, as well as flyball or any other game you want to play with them.

If you want the write up that I did, send me an email addy and I'll try and find where I filed it in this computer. :lol:

LOL I know I saw them and fell in love!! I really want one, but I usually rescue pets and have actually had really bad luck buying them :(!! I'd even take a mixed one as long as it had mostly AKK traits!!

Oh man I've found a breader that's actually only a few hours away, but she hasn't had a litter yet, so if her dog is pregnant that will be their first breading litter. I'm kind of hoping since it will be the first litter that maybe they'll be cheaper. Wishful thinking anyways lol!!

      Hi @KathyR37 and a very warm welcome here. I am so very sorry that you are going through all of this. I just wanted to check, have you ever been tested for any other gastrointestinal conditions? Cristiana

      @KathyR37, I would suspect that in addition to gluten intolerance, you have other food intolerances/sensitivities. This is very common in the celiac community. The most common offenders are oats, dairy, soy, corn and eggs with dairy and oats being the big two. Have you considered this? Have you tried keeping a food diary to detect patterns?

      thank you for your advice. I have always taken them and I use Stonehedge because they are in a glass bottle, but don't have to be refrigerated. I also like they are 3rd party tested and state gluten free. But you never know if something better has come alone over the years.

      Thank you for your response. I have already learned about the info you sent but i appreciate your effort. I am the only one in my family cursed by this disease. I have to cook for them too. I make sure that my utensils are free of gluten and clean after using them for other food. I use non-porous pots and pans and gloves when cooking for them. One huge problem...

I make sure that my utensils are free of gluten and clean after using them for other food. I use non-porous pots and pans and  gloves when cooking for them. One huge problem I have is a gag reflex out of this world and if something doesn't taste good it is not going down. Most commercially made breads and such taste like old cardboard.Pastas are about the same. I did find one flour that I like and use it regularly, but it is so expensive! All gluten free food is way more expensive. I only eat twice a day because I cannot afford to buy all that. We live on a very low income so my food purchases are quite limited.

      What you've described—the severe weight loss, the cycle of medications making things worse, and the profound fear of eating before leaving the house—is a heavy burden to carry for 15 years. It is absolutely not your fault. While everyone's journey with celiac is different, the struggles with the learning curve, social isolation, and dietary grief are feelings many in the community know all too well. Your question about whether you should just eat what you want and manage the symptoms is a heartbreaking one, born from years of frustration. It's crucial to know that the diarrhea is a sign of ongoing damage to your small intestine from gluten, and simply managing the symptom with Imodium doesn't stop that internal harm or the risk of other complications. The fact that you are still getting sick within an hour of eating, even while trying to be gluten-free, is a huge red flag that something isn't right. This could be due to cross-contamination in your kitchen (e.g., using a shared toaster, colander, or condiment jars), hidden gluten in foods, or the possibility of another concurrent condition like refractory celiac disease. Don't give up!  This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):
