The first breed club was founded in Germany in 1919 and the breed was recognised by the Kennel Club (UK) in 1971.[3]
The breed is an offshoot of the German Longhaired Pointer and was officially recognized as a separate breed when the German Longhaired Pointer club chose to deny recognition to the black and white color variation.[2]
