All dogs are "wolfdogs". The only difference between them (besides appearance and temperament) is the number of generations away from a "pure" wolf the individual canine is. The original German Shepherd studbook, Zuchtbuch fur Deutche Schaferhunde (SZ), shows several pure wolves were used to "create" the breed and this was less than 100 years ago! Similar events can be uncovered for Alaskan Malamutes, Siberian Huskies, Belgian Shepherd types, and many rarer-breed "dogs".
So an answer to your question is first cross breed dog were Alaskan Malamutes, Siberian Huskies, and Belgian Shepherd types.

Uhh cross breed dog? How do you think we got half the breeds we have now? "Cross breed dog" is just marketing term to sell you a dog that is not a pure breed, and pay as much as you pay for a pure bred dog. Honestly why bother with either get a mut from the local shelter. (Proud mutt owner.)

Most of the existing breeds today were at one time crossed with something to get that particular breed.
The Dingo of Australia and the New Guinea Singing Dog -- are considered the last existing representatives of early dogs developed in southern Asia. These dogs are thought to have traveled with their human companions all the way to Australia and New Guinea.
Another candidate is the Basenji, whose ancestor is also thought to have developed in southern Asia; it then moved with people into Africa, starting in Egypt. [See below for new confirmation from the latest dog genetic research]. The Canaan Dog of Israel traces to ancient pariah dog stock of the Middle East.
One influential new theory is that dogs were first domesticated in East Asia, possibly China, and the first peoples to enter North America took dogs with them from Asia. Now, new genetic research published in May 2004 has identified 14 ancient dog breeds, with the oldest being the Chow Chow, Shar Pei, Akita, Shiba Inu and Basenji. Because many of the 14 breeds are associated with China and Japan, the theory that the dog originated in Asia seems to be likely.

Who knows. I am sure WAY back it happened. I think Cockapoos were the first "mutt" that people bought and thought were a "breed".
