Clumber Spaniel. Clumber Spaniel, breed of dog, named after the Clumber estate in Nottinghamshire, England, where it was bred in the 19th century. The breed's earlier history is disputed, with various sources claiming that it originated in France in the 1700s. The clumber spaniel has a large, massive head; long ears; large hazel-colored eyes; short legs; a heavy body; and a short, heavy tail. The coat of the dog is dense and silky and is either lemon and white or orange and white in color. The male weighs between 32 and 39 kg (70 and 85 lb); the female, between 25 and 32 kg (55 and 70 lb). The clumber is slower moving than other sporting spaniels, but is an excellent finder and retriever of game. Microsoft ® Encarta ® 2009. © 1993-2008 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.
