A very important difference between the Clumber Spaniel and the Yorkipoo is the size difference between the two dog breeds. The Clumber Spaniel is a medium-sized dog while the Yorkipoo is a tiny-sized dog.

Furthermore, the Clumber Spaniel belongs to the Sporting Dogs group. Sporting Dogs were bred to help hunters catch and retrieve feathered game.
