How to Train your CLUMBER SPANIEL

Training Your Clumber Spaniel

The Clumber Spaniel is a heavy-boned, powerful, and remarkably docile dog. They are intelligent but operate at a very deliberate, slow pace.

Key Training Tips:

• Motivation is Key: They are notoriously stubborn and will simply go to sleep if they aren’t interested. Use strong, smelly treats to get their attention.
• Short Sessions: They do not have the stamina of other spaniels. Keep training sessions brief and highly rewarding.
• Resource Guarding: They can sometimes be possessive of food or toys. Teach the "drop it" and "leave it" commands early.

They are deeply affectionate, quiet, and make excellent, relaxed companions for owners who appreciate their mellow nature.
