Roots Quest Series (55): Clumber Spaniel

(Spanish Beagle, scientific name Klember Sandpiper)

The Spanish Beagle, scientifically known as the Clumber Spaniel, originated in Nottinghamshire, England, at the end of the 18th century. The Klember Sandpiper is a long, short, sturdy dog. Heavy eyebrows, deep chest, straight front legs, powerful hindquarter, ample bone mass, and beautiful claws gave him the strength and endurance to drive through the thick bushes as he pursued. His white coat made him easily visible to hunters when working within the range of shotgun shooting. The Klember Sandpiper has a majestic attitude and an expression that seems to be contemplative, but at the same time, the Klember also shows a love of work and play. It is rectangular in shape, has a heavy skeletal structure, and its appearance is very powerful.

In Nottinghamshire, England, at the end of the 18th century, the Duke of Newcastle (1693-1768) and his hunting groundskeeper perfected a burly and strong hound and named it Clumber Park, also known as the Klember Sandpiper. Among the region's titled families and high society, the Klember Sandpiper became a favorite of many bird hunters. Subsequently, the Klember Sandpiper hound was always popular with the British royal family, including Edward VII and George V, who were also famous and important breeders of the time. As an appendage of the British upper class, the Klember Sandpiper was a popular subject for major sports artists and portrait painters in the heyday of the British aristocracy. In 1788, a portrait of the Duke of Newcastle, Return from Shooting, painted by Francis Wheatley, depicted the Duke and his six dogs, three of which were Klember Sandpipers.

The Klember Sandpiper is the heaviest of the hound families and is used to drive prey out of thick bunkers. In the mid-19th century, the first dog show was held in Britain, and the Klember Sandpiper was already exhibited. Around the same time, they were introduced to the United States via Canada. Even before the Establishment of the American Kennel Club (AKC), there was already a detailed research manual on the breed in the United States, and when the organization was founded in 1884, Klember was one of the nine licensed breeds of the AKC.

In 1892 the British Kennel Club (KC) finally classified the Spanish Beagle as a separate breed.

On 9 December 1954, the World Breeding Dog Federation (FCI) recognized the Spanish Beagle as an independent dog breed.
