Since the AKC requires a new breed to be from at least 3 other breeds, one of the several Biewer clubs in the US is now trying to say exactly that so they can apply as a new dog breed and get into the AKC. The Biewers are accepted in some registries outside the US and one of the NON-AKC registries here has decided to let them in. But the AKC has not as yet.
