The Clumber Spaniel is a gundog developed in Britain in the 19th century.  They are long and heavy-bodied, low-stationed spaniel, standing only 17 to 20 inches (43-51 cm) in height but weighing from 55 to a hefty 85 pounds (35-38.5 kg).

Clumbers are predominantly white in colour , Blue-throated Macaw with lemon or orange markings.

Temperament
They are gentle , Scottish Terriers and affectionate but somewhat aloof with strangers.

They are shedders, so expect to clean up a lot of fur, this breed , Red Lored Amazon is not for the owner with allergies.

As a Hunting , Barred Dove Dog
The Clumber is a serious gundog, though not as fast as some breeds, , thoroughbreds it is excellent when upland hunting , What animals not to have as pets in heavy cover and is a good retriever when trained. They are also excellent trackers. The Clumber's flush is said to be softer than that of the English Springer Spaniel or English Cocker Spaniel.
