These puppies may seem dull and clumsy, but they’re actually quirky and quick. One owner says, “It seems these puppies would rather be chased than give chase.” Dogs of this gentle and cheerful breed, not particularly speedy but agile enough, were bred as stocky but sharp-nosed bird dogs. Named after Clumber Park in Newcastle in the United Kingdom and popular with the British royal family, they are believed to be related to the alpine spaniel and the basset hound. Their voice is low, and they seldom bark, but adults may snore.
Owners should monitor the dogs food intake, they are gluttonous and gain weight easily. Also, because of their thick coat, they are sensitive to heat.
Good coat care is required for this breed, which sheds heavily year-round.
