Stud Dogs
Please note the Working Clumber Spaniel Society does not accept liability for any of the dogs advertised, nor for any actions of the individual breeders. The health screening information is checked against Kennel Club and owners records.
The WCSS has extensively consulted with genetic expertise from The Animal Health Trust, The Kennel Club, University of Minnesota and Laboklin Laboratory to understand the most appropriate use of the information provided in genetic testing (eg EIC, PDP1). Each issue would potentially have a different impact on the quality of life expected by any offspring and care should be taken to understand the health implications of issues. It should be the goal to breed dogs that are unaffected by serious genetic issues however breeding dogs that aren't carriers in such a small gene pool is more challenging. The broad advice is to avoid panic and needless loss of stud dogs but to breed in the light of carefully examining potential pairings and taking genetic predispositions for issues into account along with other factors. A full statement of the Society’s advice can be found here
Please contact us if you are a member and you want your Stud Dog put on this page. Hip and Elbow scores, eye tests, EIC status and other health test information must be available and recorded by the kennel Club.
Before advertising please read our terms in the Stud dog guidance

Stormwidger Musket- Wilfred excels as a working dog, with a tenacious drive that makes him invaluable on a shoot. Whether beating or on occasional peg work, he consistently finds birds in dense cover where others
cannot. His temperament is exceptional, making him a favourite among the syndicate. At home, Wilfred is independent but enjoys brief moments of affection, showcasing his strong and unique character. A true asset both in the field and as a companion, Wilfred represents the best qualities of the Clumber Spaniel breed.

Dam – Truly Scrumptious
Rami is a qualified search dog (cadaver). He has incredible drive and motivation towards scent. He is very quick to learn and adapts to changing situations which require his intellect to help him and his handler
manage challenging situation when operationally deployed. For such a young dog he shows exceptional scent skills. He is reliable, loving and trustworthy. He has a very strong drive to reward on both ball and food (This reward is carefully managed as with all clumbers he would be very driven by food)
As a family pet he lives at home with two other
Clumber spaniels and completely relaxed.
He switches on and off his working drive as required.
He is on a raw food diet. He is subjected to enhanced
medical oversight due to the search fitness dog requirements.
