The Clumber Spaniel is another of the ancient European hunting breeds, but there is some dispute as to its origins. Some theorists say the Clumber has origins in France and some say that the breed has origins in England.
But no matter what the Clumber's origin, Clumber owners claim that no other breed will return the same amount of loyalty a Clumber gives an affectionate master both at home and in the field. Unlike others of the sporting breeds, the Clumber requires only a moderate amount of exercise and is entertained by the occasional game of fetch. The Clumber is not dumb, despite its large and "dopey" appearance. On the contrary, this breed is highly intelligent, although slow moving.
