The American Cocker Spaniel Club of Canada

 

 

The American Cocker Spaniel Club of Canada as we know it today was formed in the early 1980's.

​

The Canadian Kennel Club made a motion to combine the three Cocker varieties into one breed.

Before this there were four varieties (including black & tan).

The club was formed to have a united voice in preparing the submission to CKC

in January 1985 regarding this issue.

​

Despite significant lobbying and letter writing from Cocker fanciers nationwide,

the change to combine the varieties was implemented.

​

The first National Specialty Show was held August 30th 1986.
