BLAST FROM THE PAST

written for Australasian Gundog winter 2000 You are right if you believe the Clumber is an ancient type. The white spaniel appears throughout the aeons in illustration and text; and the spaniel of old was a heavy and long bodied dog with short broad ears. The modern breed standard demands these qualities from the exhibition Clumber; qualities that have earned this type of spaniel a unique place in history. By the time the white spaniel acquired its breed name from the Sherwood Forest country estate of the Duke of Newcastle-under-Lyne it was a sought after and valued working companion. A dog ideally suited to the demands of working the Nottinghamshire estates of woody cover with heavy thickets and sparse game populations. The white spaniel with its long, heavy and low set body and strong legs with a powerful hindquarter and short broad ears could easily penetrate this cover without undue damage to himself and showed the intelligence and tenacity to stick to the trial of game either to flush it for the gun or retrieve a runner. The added bonus of having a basically white colour allowed hunters to spot the dog in heavy undergrowth and know precisely where he was working, for unlike so many other breeds, the Clumber is a silent worker. 2000-06-01 more ...

MEET THE CLUMBER SPANIEL

The Clumber Spaniel is unique in history. It is a breed of ancient and documented lineage from 1788 when it was first portrayed with the founders of the breed, His Grace Henry, second Duke of Newcastle under Lyne and his head gamekeeper William Mansell. The breed was developed almost entirely by the Mansell family at the Duke’s properties in the north of Sherwood Forest, Nottinghamshire, England - the principle estate being called Clumber Park. 0000-00-00 more ...
