LOUVEL CANINES

Welcome to the home of Louvel Canines,
where dogs actually do things.
Louvel Canines is based in Hampshire in the UK, but we travel all over, including internationally.
There is a fair bit going on under the Louvel Canines name, and depending on what brought you here, you might only need one slice of it. If you are after the Alaskan Klee Kai breed, or curious about what truffle hunting with dogs looks like, both have their own pages, so feel free to skip straight there.
Our symbol is the fleur de lis, and it is not just there to look pretty. Louvel means little wolf in French, a nod to my own family's French heritage, and the fleur de lis carries a long history of standing for perfection, life, and light. Those three ideas, as it happens, are exactly what Louvel Canines is built on.

ABOUT THE ALASKAN KLEE KAI
Somewhere, within the Great Land called Alaska, between the massive mountains, the vast oceans, the silent tundra and the endless sheets of ice, the Glacier Witch looked down and smiled at the bright eyed tiny form in front of her.
After rescuing it from the icy waters, and drying it before the fire, it appeared somewhat smaller than before, and she was pleased. For the little Husky's smaller size would make it an ideal companion.
She searched the various native dialects and deriving its name from the Eskimo words for 'little dog', she christened the masked creature, 'Klee Kai'.
-Linda S. Spurlin
