The Chinese Crested Club of NSW started as a Social Club in 1993 with a dedicated band of Chinese Crested Dog enthusiasts. In 1994, Affiliation with the Royal New South Wales Canine Council Ltd (now trading as Dogs NSW) was granted and with minor variations can be viewed at Dogs NSW Regulations for Affiliates.
Chinese Crested Club objectives include education of both the public and dog judges and exhibitors as well as promoting the breed. The Chinese Crested Club has been involved in various TV segments and, in conjunction with the Chinese Crested Club Of Victoria Inc. , produced an Extended Breed Standard (now available from State Canine Control bodies), after ANKC approval in June 2006. The first Chinese Crested Club Championship Speciality show was held on 17th December 1994 with an entry of 82 exhibits.
