Clumber Spaniel Versus Cocker Spaniel: Introduction
Are you thinking of getting a new pet dog, and you have narrowed down your choices to the Clumber Spaniel and the Cocker Spaniel? Well, you have come to the right place. Because in this article, we will provide you with a detailed comparison of these two dog breeds to help you decide which of the Clumber Spaniel and the Cocker Spaniel better suits you.
We will provide you a detailed discussion and comparison of dog attributes such as intelligence, price, general health, friendliness, etc, for both the Clumber Spaniel and the Cocker Spaniel.
Furthermore, we will let you know which one of the Clumber Spaniel and the Cocker Spaniel is better suited for new dog owners, for owners with kids, for owners that live in apartments, for owners with dog allergies, etc.
Importantly, we did some analysis and calculation and we obtained a number that we call the Better-Pet Score™ for both the Clumber Spaniel and for the Cocker Spaniel. The dog breed with the higher Better-Pet score is the `better` pet. We hope that these Better-Pet Scores will provide you with more insight into deciding which pet to get between the Clumber Spaniel and the Cocker Spaniel.
Our only goal here is to help you make a well-thought-out decision on your next long-term companion, be it the Clumber Spaniel or the Cocker Spaniel.
Clumber Spaniel versus Cocker Spaniel: Overview
A very important difference between the Clumber Spaniel and the Cocker Spaniel is the size difference between the two dog breeds. The Clumber Spaniel is a medium-sized dog while the Cocker Spaniel is a small-sized dog.
Furthermore, both the Clumber Spaniel and the Cocker Spaniel are Sporting Dogs. This means both the Clumber Spaniel and the Cocker Spaniel were bred to help hunters catch and retrieve feathered game. Some sporting dog breeds such as Retrievers, which were built for swimming, were bred to hunt waterfowl in water. Whereas sporting dog breeds like setters, spaniels, and pointing breeds were bred to hunt quail, pheasant, and other game birds nest on grasslands. Many Sporting Group breeds have thick, water-repellent coats that protect them from harsh hunting conditions.
Clumber Spaniel versus Cocker Spaniel: Comparison Table
The table below compares the Clumber Spaniel to the Cocker Spaniel based on different important factors such as Price, Health, Kid-friendliness, etc.
When a dog breed scores higher for a factor than the other dog breed, the box of the breed that scores higher is shaded green and the box of the breed that scores lower is shaded red. When there is no difference between the breeds for a particular factor then the box is shaded gray for both pets. Also, when the factor is not important in picking a pet, or when the factor cannot be compared between two pets, the box for the factor is shaded gray for both pets
Most of the factors in the table for each dog breed are ranked on a scale of 1 to 5. “1” means “worst”, and “5” means “best”.
However, some factors such as “Price”, “Average Lifespan”, etc. cannot be on a scale of 1 to 5, so they are not on a scale of 1 to 5 in the comparison table.
Later in this article, we will further explain each factor as it applies to the Clumber Spaniel and the Cocker Spaniel

Next, we added the scores of the factors that can be added together for the Clumber Spaniel in the table (that is, `Ease of Grooming` score + `General Health` score + `Calmness` score + …etc) and we compared it to the corresponding total score for the Cocker Spaniel. We call these total scores the Better-Pet Scores, as we mentioned earlier. We called this score the Better-Pet score because the better dog breed will have a higher score. This is because the pet will the higher score will have minimal needs and be easier to have as a pet.
The Better-Pet score for the Clumber Spaniel is 75 out of 125 while the Better-Pet score for the Cocker Spaniel is 77 out of 125.
Based on their Better-Pet scores, the Cocker Spaniel is a better pet than the Clumber Spaniel. So, you should get the Cocker Spaniel!
Although we have done our best to analyze these two dog breeds in a very unbiased way, however, we will like to let you know that there are some dog attributes that cannot be assigned a number for comparison. We cannot put a number on how cute a dog breed is, for example. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
Also, the dog breed that best suits you will depend on your peculiar lifestyle, your taste, and your priorities, which we do not know. So, for you to decide on which breed is right for you, read through the rest of the article to further understand both the Clumber Spaniel and the Cocker Spaniel so that you can make your own well-informed decision on which pet to get.

Note that a lot of factors determine how much you can expect to pay for the Clumber Spaniel puppy or the Cocker Spaniel puppy. This includes if health screening tests have been performed on the puppy, if the puppy is from a famous pedigree, the US State where the puppy is bred, etc.
Nevertheless, when looking to buy a puppy, look at buying a puppy only from well-established breeders that breed puppies primarily for the love of dogs, and secondarily for profit. Do not buy a puppy from a puppy mill. Puppy mills mass-produce puppies in bad living conditions for maximum profit.
You may also consider adopting a dog instead of buying a dog.

The Intelligence of the Clumber Spaniel versus the Intelligence of the Cocker Spaniel
| Clumber Spaniel | Cocker Spaniel | |
|---|---|---|
| Intelligence Rank | 37 out of 130 dog breeds | 20 out of 130 dog breeds |
| Trainability | Tend To Learn New Commands After 15 To 25 Repetitions | Tend To Learn New Commands After 5 To 15 Repetitions |
Professor Stanley Coren, the famous psychology/neuropsychological professor and, dog lover/trainer measured and ranked the intelligence of about 130 different dog breeds.
According to Prof. Stanley Coren, the total intelligence that a dog demonstrates is the addition of three types of intelligence. These intelligence types are:
Prof. Coren showed that the Working/Obedience Intelligence of different dog breeds can be measured reliably. Thus, he was able to rank different dog breeds based on their Working/Obedience Intelligence.
This is important because according to Prof. Coren, 51 percent of a dog`s intelligence comes from its genes while 49 percent of a dog`s intelligence comes from the dog`s environmental circumstances.
To rank the intelligence of dog breeds, Prof. Coren employed the help of 208 dog obedience judges in North America to fill out a detailed survey on dog obedience. This number represented more than half of all of these judges in North America at the time. He also employed 63 veterinarians and 14 guard dog experts to collect data on the personality of different dog breeds.
Prof. Coren found that the Clumber Spaniel has an obedience intelligence rank of 37 out of 130 dog breeds. The Clumber Spaniel belongs to the `Above Average Working Dogs` category. This means that Clumber Spaniels tend to learn new commands after 15 to 25 repetitions.
The Cocker Spaniel has an obedience intelligence rank of 20 out of 130 dog breeds. The Cocker Spaniel belongs to the `Excellent Working Dogs` category. This means that Cocker Spaniels tend to learn new commands after 5 to 15 repetitions.
The Cocker Spaniel is more intelligent than the Clumber Spaniel.
However, Prof. Coren noted that a dog should not be judged based on its intelligence alone, that other factors such as sociability, adorability, and compatibility with the owner are other very important factors that new dog owners need to consider when deciding on a new dog.
The Popularity of Clumber Spaniel versus Popularity of Cocker Spaniel
Every year, the American Kennel Club (AKC) publishes information on how popular a dog breed is in that particular year. The AKC gets the popularity information of a breed from how many dogs of that breed the owners register with the AKC every year. The AKC collects this data for about 200 dog breeds. The AKC collects this data for purebred dogs only(no mixed or hybrid dogs).
The graphs and the table below show the popularity of the Clumber Spaniel and the Cocker Spaniel over the years.
Based on the AKC popularity data over the years, the Cocker Spaniel is more popular with dog owners than the Clumber Spaniel. This is because, over the years, the average popularity of the Cocker Spaniel is 29 out of about 200 dog breeds while the average popularity of the Clumber Spaniel is 138 out of about 200 dog breeds.

Health Problems of Clumber Spaniel versus Health Problems of Cocker Spaniel
Every dog breed has its own set of health problems that it has a tendency to develop. There is nothing like a perfect dog breed.
Both the Clumber Spaniel and the Cocker Spaniel are prone to certain genetic health conditions. The Orthopedic Foundation for Animals (OFA) is the organization that keeps track of health problems in dogs. Based on the extensive records that the OFA keeps, the OFA knows what health problems each dog breed is naturally prone to develop. Hence, the OFA recommends which health screening that breeders should perform on a dog breed to make sure that the breeders won`t breed `defective` dog parents that can pass down defective genes to their puppy offspring.
The more health problems a dog breed is prone to develop, the more health tests the OFA will recommend for that dog breed.
Based on our review of OFA records, we found that the Clumber Spaniel is prone to more genetic health problems than the Cocker Spaniel.
This is because the OFA recommends more screening health tests for the Clumber Spaniel than for the Cocker Spaniel.
4 health tests are recommended for Clumber Spaniel while 2 tests are recommended for the Cocker Spaniel.
Below is a detailed discussion of health problems in Clumber Spaniels and in Cocker Spaniels.
Clumber Spaniel Health Problems
Clumber Spaniels are genetically prone to certain health problems. However, breeders can reduce the chances of producing Clumber Spaniel puppies with genetic defects by making sure that a puppy`s parents are free from genetic health problems before allowing the parent to make puppies.
The OFA provides breeders recommendations on which genetic diseases that breeders should screen their dog parents and puppies for.
If you want a Clumber Spaniel puppy that will grow up to be healthy, make sure that your Clumber Spaniel breeder screens your puppy or your puppy`s parents for the health problems that the OFA recommends for your puppy`s breed. This will increase the chances that your puppy is free from genetic defects.
The following are the health tests that Orthopedic Foundation for Animals (OFA) recommends that breeders should screen Clumber Spaniels for:

Cocker Spaniel Health Problems
Cocker Spaniels are genetically prone to certain health problems. However, breeders can reduce the chances of producing Cocker Spaniel puppies with genetic defects by making sure that a puppy`s parents are free from genetic health problems before allowing the parent to make puppies.
The OFA provides breeders recommendations on which genetic diseases that breeders should screen their dog parents and puppies for.
If you want a Cocker Spaniel puppy that will grow up to be healthy, make sure that your Cocker Spaniel breeder screens your puppy or your puppy`s parents for the health problems that the OFA recommends for your puppy`s breed. This will increase the chances that your puppy is free from genetic defects.
The following are the health tests that Orthopedic Foundation for Animals (OFA) recommends that breeders should screen Cocker Spaniels for:

More Discussions on Health Problems in Clumber Spaniels and Cocker Spaniels
Based on our analysis of data from the Orthopedic Foundation for Animals, of all known genetic health problems in dogs, the health problem that is most commonly seen in the Clumber Spaniel Breed is Hips problems.
This is because the Clumber Spaniel ranks 9 out of 198 dog breeds for Hips problems. In fact, in a health test conducted on 1237 Clumber Spaniels, 528 of them had Hips problems.
The genetic diseases that were found to commonly occur in Clumber Spaniels, and how common these diseases are in Clumber Spaniels relative to other dog breeds, are given below:
Based on our analysis of data from the Orthopedic Foundation for Animals, of all known genetic health problems in dogs, the health problem that is most commonly seen in the Cocker Spaniel Breed is Patella problems.
This is because the Cocker Spaniel ranks 12 out of 145 dog breeds for Patella problems. In fact, in a health test conducted on 1845 Cocker Spaniels, 145 of them had Patella problems.
The genetic diseases that were found to commonly occur in Cocker Spaniels, and how common these diseases are in Cocker Spaniels relative to other dog breeds, are given below:
The table below lists the common health problems in Clumber Spaniel and in Cocker Spaniel and the rank (prevalence), compared to other dogs, of these health problems in the Clumber Spaniel and the Cocker Spaniel:
| Disease | Clumber Spaniel Rank | Cocker Spaniel Rank |
|---|---|---|
| Hips problems | 9 out of 198 dog breeds | 144 out of 198 dog breeds |
| Eyes problems | 27 out of 182 dog breeds | 28 out of 182 dog breeds |
| Elbow problems | 42 out of 144 dog breeds | 125 out of 144 dog breeds |
| Patella problems | Not Common | 12 out of 145 dog breeds |
| Thyroid problems | Not Common | 22 out of 115 dog breeds |
| Dentition Database problems | Not Common | 26 out of 49 dog breeds |
*To learn more about each of these diseases, go to OFA.org and search for the disease.
Again, most of these health problems can be prevented through health screening. Responsible breeders screen male and female dog parents for genetic problems. These breeders will only breed dogs that are free of genetic defects. That way, there is little or no chance that their puppies will grow up to have genetic health problems. Always ask a breeder for the list of health tests the breeder screens their dogs for before buying a puppy from such a breeder.
