Question: what is the difference between the american kennel club and the continental kennel club?
Answer: AKC vs CKC The Continental Kennel Club registers purebred dogs as well as mixed breeds. The AKC has registered 175 purebred dog pedigrees while the CKC recognizes about 450 breeds. The AKC has been a purebred dog registry for over 130 years, thus their dog's lineage can be traced that far back.
