Join the Clumber Spaniel Club

Members of the Clumber Spaniel Club receive preferential entry fees for Club events, as well as the Club publications, which are Clumber Clips, our breed club magazine, published biannually, and the Yearbook, which is a biennial publication.

Clumber Clips is published in April and October each year. It contains a wide range of articles designed to appeal to a wide range of Clumber lovers. Recent examples include grooming, reports on Clumber social events, Clumbers appearing on television, and a running historical series on a famed breeder with royal connections.

Event announcements, samples from the breed archive, obituaries, breed health reports, the Club’s own show reports, and a sample of news from overseas are regular features.

These magazines are printed in full colour in A5, and we also produce an electronic version that can be emailed to our members who prefer to receive a digital version.

The Yearbook is a record of the previous two years’ successes within the breed. It records Kennel Club major wins, including Challenge Certificates and Junior Warrant holders. New Champions’ pedigrees are included, along with trophy winners and reports from the officers of the Club.

In a digital age, the Yearbook provides a hard-copy record of these Clumber accomplishments.

The most appealing section of the Yearbook to many Clumber enthusiasts is the advertisement section, sometimes known as the review pages. Here, members and non-members of the Club are invited to celebrate their Clumber Spaniels in colour-printed form. Large photographs accompany text which, though mainly recording exhibition wins, working, breeding, agility or any activity, is welcomed.

Often, a new puppy is announced or a planned upcoming litter.

In recent years, this section has included a dedicated “In Memoriam” chapter for those much-loved Clumbers sadly lost.

Membership of the Clumber Spaniel Club costs £12/single, £18 /joint or overseas and £5 juniors or gamekeepers.
