Clumber Spaniel

This dog is mellow around the house and can also fare well in city life so long as they get daily exercise. It may drool or snore.

Breed Overview

Originating in England in the 1700s, this Spaniel was used for bird flushing and retrieving. They are the most easy going and calm of all the sporting breeds. They are hunters at heart and enjoy running outside. They require daily exercise to be content at home and they are even content to live in the city. These devoted dogs make an excellent pet and enjoy companionship. They are not very good at protecting, but are great at being watchdogs.
