Clumber Spaniel(克伦伯猎鹬犬) [简介]克伦伯猎鹬犬是一种长、矮、坚实的狗。他沉重的眉毛，深深的胸部、笔直的前腿、有力的后躯，充足的骨量、和漂亮的足爪，使他有力量和耐力在追击时穿过浓密的灌木丛。他的白色被毛使他在猎枪射击范围内工作时，很容易被猎手看见。他的态度威严，表情象是在沉思，但与此同时，他也表现出喜爱工作和玩耍。
[体型] 克伦伯猎鹬犬外形呈矩形，拥有沉重的骨骼结构，外貌显得非常有力。雄性理想的肩高约为18~20英寸；雌性的理想肩高约为17~19英寸。从马肩隆到尾根的距离与肩高的理想比例大约为11/9。雄性的体重大约79~85磅；而雌性的体重大约为55~70磅。
[头部]头部厚重，止部明显，眉毛沉重。脑袋顶部平坦，后枕骨突出。眼睛中间有轻微的凹痕，并向上延伸到脑袋中间。口吻宽而深，可以很容易地叼回各种猎物。鼻镜大，正方形，颜色为褐色，还包括了米色、玫瑰色和樱桃色。从侧面观察的时候，上唇和上颚非常发达，与下颚交叠，形成矩形外观。剪状咬和为首选。眼睛为深湖泊色，大，目光柔和。眼睛深陷，眼眶可以是菱形的，也可以下端为“V”字形，上端为曲线形。可以有少量瞬膜外露，但大量瞬膜外露则不合需要。突出的或圆形的眼睛属于缺陷。眼裂过大、眼睑内翻或眼睑外翻都属于缺陷。耳朵上端宽，耳廓厚实。耳朵呈三角形，底端圆，在脑袋的位置低，接近眼睛所在的水平线。
[颈部、背线、身躯]克伦伯猎鹬犬拥有较长的颈部，喉咙处皮肤松弛或有赘肉不属于缺陷。颈部结实且肌肉发达，与向后倾斜的肩胛接合良好。背部直而稳固，长而平。胸部深且肋骨支撑良好。胸部深而宽。腰部略微圆拱。尾巴上有许多羽状饰毛，位置是背线的下面。需要修剪尾巴上的毛发，保留的部分尽可能少，羽状饰毛需要收拾整齐，以保持自然的外貌轮廓。尾巴通常平举到背线的位或略高一点，决不能夹在腿中间。尾巴可以是断尾或自然的尾巴，两种情况都可以接受。如果断尾，尾巴的长度需要与整体比例协调。如果自然的尾巴，尾骨应该延伸到飞节，但不能拖到地面。
[前躯] 克伦伯猎鹬犬的肩胛向后倾斜。上臂有充足的长度，使肘部可以正好位于马肩隆下方。前肢短、直、且骨量充足，肘部保持贴近身躯。骹骨结实，且略微倾斜。前足爪大，紧凑，脚垫厚实，可以承受巨大的冲击力，并减震吸能。狼爪是否切除是可选的。
[后躯] 大腿肌肉沉重，且从后面观察时，后躯圆而宽。膝关节显示出良好的角度，飞节到后跟的距离短，且垂直于地面。缺乏角度是很糟糕的。后足爪不象前足爪那么大、那么圆，但非常紧凑，脚垫厚实，非常坚固。
[被毛]身躯的被毛浓密、直、且平坦。能很好的抵御恶劣气候，触摸的感觉柔软，不粗糙。耳朵的毛发直，略有羽状饰毛。腿部和腹部的羽状饰毛适中。克伦伯猎鹬犬拥有良好的颈部装饰，在任何条件下都不能刨除喉咙的毛发。明显的刨除痕迹属于缺陷。足爪的毛发需要修剪整洁，显露出自然的轮廓，并便于在野外工作。后腿飞节以下部位需要修剪。尾巴上的羽状饰毛需要收拾整齐。是否修剪胡须是可选的。
[颜色和斑纹]克伦伯猎鹬犬主要颜色是白色，带有柠檬色或橘色斑纹。斑纹通常出现在一侧或两侧耳朵和脸部。脸部斑纹包括了一个或两个眼睛周围，口吻上的斑点和头顶上的斑块。带有柠檬色/橘色斑纹的头部和全白的头部是一样的，都可以接受。腿部的雀斑和/或靠近尾根部的斑块也很常见，也可以接受。身体上有很少量的斑纹是可以接受的。
[步态]克伦伯猎鹬犬的动作轻松而舒展，前躯伸展充分，后躯驱动强大，既没有交叉步，也没有肘部外翻的迹象。飞节的驱动方向笔直，既无摇摆，也不扭曲。由于身躯较宽，且腿比较短，所以步态略呈滚动状。克伦伯猎鹬犬正确的滚动步态出现在比例正确，后腿向前伸展时，趋向于身体中心线，使臀部向下转动，而背部保持平直。其步态轻松自在，在野外工作时，可以整天维持小跑状态，而不疲惫。
[气质]克伦伯猎鹬犬是一种温和、忠诚、挚爱的狗。发自内心的希望取悦与主人。一个聪明而独立的思想家，在工作中显示出果断和独到的见解。他是一种高贵的狗，有时好象会避开人类，有时又显示出顽皮、友爱的天性。克伦伯猎鹬犬不应该显得有敌意或好斗；既不合需要，也不能被宽恕。

TheClumber moves easily and freely with good reach in front and strongdrive from behind, neither crossing over nor elbowing out. The hocksdrive in a straight line without rocking or twisting.
