Gayle. Posted November 6, 2011 Share Posted November 6, 2011 There wouldn't have been a first for the ANKC. I'd imagine they formed and then incorporated the breeds already recognised by the UK controlling body. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The nine breeds are: Chesapeake Bay Retriever Cocker Spaniel* Clumber Spaniel English Setter Gordon Setter Irish Setter Irish Water Spaniel Pointer Sussex Spaniel *The American Cocker Spaniel and the English Cocker Spaniel was registered as the same dog breed until 1946.

GeckoTree Posted November 6, 2011 Share Posted November 6, 2011 (edited) I dont think there was a first, The first of the 8 individual canine associations who approached them after formation in the 50's with what ever breeds they had on there books was the first.
