PURPOSE
The purpose of this Illustrated Standard is to help breeders,
judges and fanciers understand and interpret the written standard
for the ideal Clumber Spaniel.
The standard is a written guideline to describe those characteristics
of type that distinguish Clumber Spaniels from other
spaniels. Many years of study, observation and experience are
required to properly evaluate type and soundness in the show
ring, in the field, in the whelping box, and in the home environment.
It is the responsibility of the judge and breeder to
interpret the standard as objectively as possible, realizing that
the individual relies on his personal experiences and preferences.
This illustrated standard is intended to assist the
enthusiast in formulating his opinion and proper mental picture
as it applies to the ideal dog by offering this objective
explanation of the Clumber Spaniel.
