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!!

      Years of testing - no real answers

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      The intestinal tract can be as long as twenty-two feet long, so intestinal damage may be out of the reach of endoscopy tools.  Some people have had more success with capsule endoscopy, but this method cannot take biopsies.

      What should I do with these test results?

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @Jack Common, It's possible that your antibiotic for giardiasis has caused thiamine deficiency.   https://hormonesmatter.com/metronidazole-toxicity-thiamine-deficiency-wernickes-encephalopathy/ And... Thiamine and benfotiamine: Focus on their therapeutic potential https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10682628/ For clarification, the weight of your slice of bread is not equal to the amount of gluten in it.   Gluten helps form those big holes in breads, so breads like thick chewy pizza crust and artisan breads contain more gluten than cakes and cookies.

      Guidance on next steps after the lab tests

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Sorry about that link.  It was meant for a different post.   Do consider taking high dose Vitamin D in order to get your level up to around 80 nm/l quickly.   This is the level where Vitamin D can properly work like a hormone and can improve the immune system and lower inflammation.  It makes a big difference.   I took high dose Vitamin D and really improved quickly.  I ate Vitamin D supplements throughout the day like m&ms.  My body craved them.  Very strange, I know, but it worked.   Before you have surgery, you really need to improve your vitamins and minerals.  Vitamins A and D, Vitamin C and Niacin are extremely important to skin health and repair.  Without these, the body does not repair itself neatly.  I've got a scar worthy of a horror movie.  My doctors were clueless about nutritional deficiencies. A sublingual Vitamin B12 supplement will work better for boosting levels.  Tablets or liquid drops in the mouth are easily absorbed directly into the blood stream.   Do bear in mind that about half of Celiac people react to the protein in dairy, Casein, the same as they react to gluten because segments of the protein in Casein resembles segments of the protein Gluten.  Some people lose the ability to produce lactase, the enzyme that digests Lactose, the sugar in dairy, as they age.  Others lose the ability to produce lactase because the intestinal Villi become damaged during the autoimmune response against gluten, and damaged chili can't produce lactase.   Do try Benfotiamine.  It has been shown to improve gastrointestinal health and neuropathy. Keep us posted on your progress!

      Thanks sending me additional links including how to test for thiamine deficiency. With regards to your first link, I wasn't diagnosed with giardiasis and I didn't take antibiotic for it. I try to generally stay away from antibiotic unless absolutely necessary as it might affect gut health. For treating phimosis, the doctor didn't give me antibiotics. I need to have a circumcision surgery which I haven't got around to schedule it.

      Guidance on next steps after the lab tests

      I'm not vegan, just vegetarian. I consume dairy but not egg. So I have started including some Vitamin D fortified milk as well as a multivitamin with 2000 IU daily. For Vitamin B12, like you said it's very difficult to get it from just vegetarian sources and have started consuming Vitamin B Complex daily. My PCP was worried when my Vitamin D result came out as It was 3.7 ng/ml last year. He said that being low for a lengthy time could have done some damage to the body over the years. Now, though Vitamin D level has improved after the supplements, I'm not sure if the neurological damage has already been done. I'll continue including the supplements and see if my symptoms improve. I'll also get tested for celiac to see if I need to be in gluten-free diet.
