The large, compact, webbed feet have thick pads. The tail is often docked at birth in the United States, though docking the Clumber Spaniel's tail is not permitted in England and Scandinavia. The thick-leathered, triangular ears are wide at the top with a rounded lower edge. The soft, dense, straight coat is white with lemon or orange markings. The body should be mostly white.
Freckles are common on the front legs and muzzle.
The dog should have moderate feathering on the underside, legs, ears and tail. Do not jog with a Clumber in hot weather or on pavement. Although the Clumber can do well in most climates, he is more comfortable in cool climates because of his dense coat. Since the Clumber loves to fetch, exercising him is easy. Beware of hip dysplasia.
