It's a Corgi-Huski?
MamaKin
It looks like someone managed to mate a Malamute with a Chihuahua.
Deadmetal42
Oh look, another inbred dog breed. Look at how much the eyes protrude. Skull is too small.
Jacksohn
but is it healthy
jeffreybaratheon
These pics don't really do justice to how cute they are. My friend has 2 and they look a lot less rat-like.
w0ntoan
I heard they are very selfish/independent and hard to train. Any opinions on that?
Blankety
Sweet succulent baby Jesus, LOOK AT THOSE FRIGGEN EYES.
Rengii
They so badly want to escape from the confines of that skull.
LokiFish
I have seen two of these dogs in my career in the veterinary industry. Both died within weeks of turning 1 year old due to health issues.

They finally found a way to make huskies ugly
ThisCommentIsHilarious
Health problems. Health problems everywhere.
TheIkeaMonkey
As a dog enthusiast, I'm surprised I never knew that they = prone to so many issues http://www.petmd.com/dog/breeds/c_dg_alaskan_klee_kai
ThisCommentIsHilarious
Well, me neither really. I'm kinda just assuming to be honest
TheIkeaMonkey
Your assumptions were correct, but what were you basing your assumptions on?
ThisCommentIsHilarious
I guess I hear about small mixed breeds that are more prone to health problems i.e. pugs, poodles, Maltese etc
megshroom
You know what? I'll pass.

They have tiny howls. www.youtube.com/watch?v=hdJXf9BxPi8

This looks like another fabricated dog breed that has abnormal problems.
IHateApostrophes
Every dog breed is fabricated. The fact that they aren't wolves is entirely due to humans domesticating them.
xVancha
Yes but he didn't just say another fabricated dog breed. He said another fabricated dog breed that has abnormal problems, which these are.
ThinkBlue4
Is it part of the Klee Kai Klan?
warriorjag
That's not a breed of dog. It's an oversized rat impersonating a husky.
Caityb23
This.
AggravatedFerret
The pronounced canines and furry tail beg to differ

"Are you the parents of the ferret?" "Yes, Doctor... is he gonna be okay?" "No, I'm afraid his funny bone is broken."

OH SHIT
jrau18
I can't tell if you're only just now getting their joke.
AggravatedFerret
Nah just just now checking
theeyecollector
It looks like the squirrel from Ice Age.
MyCatLikesToFruitcake
Looks neurotic. Probably another overbred "cute" breed.
thyarmageddon
Who needs Jurassic Park to tell us why we shouldn't play God when our generations of destroying dog genetics is proof enough?

Why do people take perfectly good dogs and wreck them? (See: Mini/Toy Aussies)

I love you soooooooooooooooooooooooooo much!
Cisforstupidthatsgoodenoughforme
Because they are so cute that we can justify our abusive breeding practices.

@inboxmeyourhuskys
allonz
This isn't a husky though
ineedadultsupervision
Second that.
Inboxmeyourhuskys
Omg these are so cute
CanuckyFriedChicken
Also horrible dogs with no social skills and tend to be very vicious and hard to train, but they are very cute, I'll give you that, haha.
raifsevrence
oh shit..wtf is that a siberian chihuahua ? it's pretty though even if I do dislike rat sized/cat sized dogs.....
bobbynixon
Your opinion is incorrect. My Yorkie is the shit.
Skiafluff
These pics are pretty bad examples. They look like mini huskies not husky-chihuahuas.
PanFluteMan
It's not cute enough to deal with it imo.
CanuckyFriedChicken
Absolutely horrible breed. A lot of first hand experience
KatimusPrimeTV
I was thinking "that looks like a freaking chihuahua" the whole time looking at them. Siberian husky's are cute.... chihuahuas...nope

Those are usually my sentiments as well. The smallest dogs I still like are corgis.
BoooBerry
They get up to 25 pounds or about the size of a Cocker Spaniel. I suspect this one is either a toy variant or a pup.
JonBrewer
inbreeding = miniatures for all
halborski
It's a Huskito.
Housemaster
Two of the most energetic dogs... what could possibly go wrong?
cuttlefishsticks
I met one at a dog park once, holy shit that thing did not stop running ever.
ASandhu22
Which? Siberian or chihuahua?

Klee Kai
abeaverisjustakindofrodentgetoveritalready
I discovered these the other day, too. This = husky chihuahua. Swedish vallhund = husky corgi. All spitz dogs = awesome :D
ineedadultsupervision
These aren't huskies though.
abeaverisjustakindofrodentgetoveritalready
Well no, but they look like husky versions of other dogs...?
CanuckyFriedChicken
These dogs are actually horrible.. I've dealt with many
abeaverisjustakindofrodentgetoveritalready
Damn, that's a shame. Oh well, a pretty face ain't everything...
WhereOnceThereWasAYachtNowThereIsNot
HOWEVER the Swedish Valhund is an ancient breed, so completely healthy, where this is heavily bred, causing issues.
abeaverisjustakindofrodentgetoveritalready
That's sad to hear, it seems so counterintuitive to breed just for looks :( Oh, and awesome username btw :)
WhereOnceThereWasAYachtNowThereIsNot
Yeah I hate the breed culture, ruins the health of dogs. Give me ancient breeds forever. And fellow ArDev fan eh? Classy :D
abeaverisjustakindofrodentgetoveritalready
...Actually, I just liked the 'rhyme' in the name. Had to fess up. Am I missing something cool which I could get into?
WhereOnceThereWasAYachtNowThereIsNot
Oh god man/woman. Stop what you're doing, go to Netflix and watch every episode of Arrested Development. You can thank me profusely later.
karlywithak
They're psycho and have breathing problems. Source: work at a vet clinic
CoolHandRiley
Someone on imgur claims they are an expert. It must be true!
AllTheGoodOnesWereGone
First two pictures are cute, then it's clearly a neurotic psycho dog. No thanks.
IMakeLotsOfReferencesAndRemakes
Not sure I see what you see but okay.
Canofminus
don't forget "allergic" to the sun. My friend and his mom keep on getting Boston Terriors and Pugs. It's like an ark of god's rejects.
ShakeZula77
Thank you. I had thought for a brief second that I might get a second dog and thought about this breed. No thanks
CanuckyFriedChicken
Don't. My sister has one. They bond to one person, are very vicious and tend to be problematic and impossible to find sitters for.
Melinthemaking
They are prone for a Factor VII deficiency (blood clotting), luxating patella, thyroid disease, and opthalmology and cardiac (1/?)
Melinthemaking
(2/?) conditions. The males suffer Cryptorchidism (basically, do NOT breed them, only for professionals). Also very common for them to
Melinthemaking
(3/?) retain their baby teeth which will cause a lot of issues when the adult teeth start to move in. They require a lot of exercise and
Melinthemaking
(4/?) mental stimulation otherwise they tend to be a very destructive dog. But very adorable!
thecraziestofturtles
Mine is actually very calm and loves people. Also doesn't look half as neurotic either.
HeathHill421
pictures? :)
thecraziestofturtles
/a/AdlM5 his little puppy stage :) I'll keep going as he gets older
TheClassyGentleman
i did think it looked a bit disproportionate and unnatural at first sight.
justasomeone
i dislike bred animals and love, love, love rescues
VaguelySatisfying
As someone else who loves rescues and has many... Supporting responsible breeders is super important for the future of animal welfare.
justasomeone
Responsible is the key word. I have rarely seen it.
HahaYaFeelMe
What about pomskys? My family was thinking about getting one
wittyandcharmingnamenoonehasthoughtofyet
Who ever thought a huskey and a chihuahua were a good idea is a complete mad man. That's also not an Alaskan breed.
pen15alwayswins
As a vet tech, this being top comment makes me really happy...
vondeluth
Do samoyeds have similar breathing/muscular problems? Cause they and shibas are the only smaller dog I think I would consider #huskylife
Pirkale
Samoyed... smaller? Wait, what?
vondeluth
these glorious bastards
Pirkale
I mean, if samoyeds are "smaller" dogs for you, what are medium-sized and what are large? Direwolves? ;)
remonsterie
i met once at the dog park once. total psycho
DickDraper
They act more like cats than dogs. Source - my cousin has one.
LetsHoldHandsBro
My first thought : what kind of health issues does this one have then?
PaulTheBod
And it is worth thousands of dollars.
amkoc
I think much of 'psycho' rep comes from people expecting a lapdog when is a mix of two high-energy Spitz mixes, and so never exercising them
karlywithak
you're exactly right. They are high strung, which isn't always a bad thing if properly stimulated.
FckfacevonClownstick
Dogs eyes looks like it could pop out any second
LivingWithBearsPleaseSendHelp
Is there any problems with their eyes? Seems like they are about to pop.
karlywithak
They'd have the same kind of eye problems you see in Shih Tzus and chihuahuas whose eyes are especially protuberant.
BigSecksi
They are like the worst things about jack russels and pugs in one dog.
comicreader
It looks like a chihuahua.
Jagadid
My first thought was "This dog's gotta be angry as fuck."
sendcookierecipes
You just described 80percent of Americans.
karlywithak
I thought this was funny.
Horus175
"I hate everything" psycho or "nervous ball of energy" psycho?
AccioHockey
The bite everyone psycho
kidabeshnaga
Also, kind of standoffish. Like, even more so than huskies.
VaguelySatisfying
I can't say I've met many standoffish huskies, at least when they have their owner around. Without their human, yeah, they can get weird....
TheVikingKasper
You seem like a clever lady
karlywithak
I know a little about a lot of things.
TheVikingKasper
Fuck thats a good moto. Can i steal it?
SamMan
OK I kind of like the psycho dogs no one else likes, but curious what sort of breathing problems as they have a long snout?
karlywithak
(1/?) I'm really not sure, and to be honest I haven't met too many in my lifetime. It could be associated with their heart, causing them to
karlywithak
sort of snort and breath heavily like you see in brachycephalic dogs. I'm just sharing what I've observed. I do not know the cause. (2/2)
KhajiitHasDoneNothing
What's the breed with the least ammount of problems?
VaguelySatisfying
It's true. Hybrid vigor. Google that shit.
karlywithak
Yup. A mutt for sure.
Dianiko
What is the best type of small breed dog in your opinion?
HeathHill421
I have a pomchi, but we think there might be some dashound in him too, he's everything good in the world
kaps27
I like the cavalier king charles spaniel! perfect little lap dog. sweetest and smartest dog. only thing is, they can have heart problems
pointbarsghost
Ive had 3 chihuahuas 2 pure bred 1 mix... all 3 were amazing dogs...
bisforbrookie
Agreed ! 2 chi- dachshund mixes later- perfect if you're willing to actually train them :)
Rinani
So pretty much like most other dogs bred for a small size?
Sinus23
Pretty much any type of dog that has been bred in general. Not all of them but many :|
ImTheOneWhoTookYourRug
I heard toy dogs are spazzy because they have a constant pressure headache. The brain doesn't size down as quickly as skull size 1/2
ImTheOneWhoTookYourRug
during selective breeding. Sauce won't fit, but it's there if you google it.
Aggretsuko
it looks as small and similar to my shiba and she's fine :\ not really psycho but does have an attitude <3
takeacatnap
I have two Maltese and they're both super healthy. Not all small dogs are messed up, just the ones that are bred down.
CanuckyFriedChicken
The way I see it, chihuahuas think they're big so they're vicious. These guys realize they're small and get so terrified they bite everyone
clify420
Bro my mom has a miniature Doberman and he's such a dick. Barks and snaps at me.. I put him in the microwave and blamed it on my autistic gf
DarkWingDerpy
As a person with ASD, go fuck yourself.
CanuckyFriedChicken
That sounds terrifying to be honest, but I really, really hope you didn't turn the microwave on
clify420
I said has not had );
NewsMuffin
WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU
karlywithak
Omg min pins are so awful.
clify420
Yeah I'm not even a cat person but I want to get a cat so it cat beat his ass and protect me
enderkai
my brothers is a bit energetic but it is honestly like normal for the most part
karlywithak
exactly.
Lenton
Is the psycho bit because the brain of a larger dog is being squeezed into a smaller skull?
Rinani
One of the sad realities with selective breeding effectively giving the new "breed" defects.
[deleted]
[deleted]
DragoonExMachina
If you want to get technical, selective breeding is "inbreeding towards an end."
Rinani
Selective breeding also brought out defects in several dogs. The Bulldog, Pugs and these in the picture all have airway obstruction problems
