Casmir Clumbers is a small kennel located in Thonotosassa, Florida,
7 miles
outside of Tampa. Before Clumbers, I had previously raised Poms, Malamutes,
and Lilac Siamese cats. As a child my mother raised English
Springer Spaniels.
I started in Clumbers in 1996 with Maxwell (Ch. Lord Winston
Maxwell Hunter) and then two years later I got Sarah (Ch. Wicfairs Sarah
Lawrence). I had my first litter of Clumbers in 2001 and kept Rosie
(Ch. Casmir's Moonlight and Roses). Both Rosie and
her littermate Tucker (Ch. Casmir's Mysty Moonlight) became champions. Tucker
went on to receive an Award of Merit at Eukanuba.
Casmir Clumbers breeds for Temperament and Soundness; this is our first
priority. We have produced 22 champions with several
others only being a few points away from their
championship. Nick
(Ch. Casmir's St. Nicholas) from our litter in December 2002
received an Award of Merit at Eukanuba. He then went
on to
Westminster and was in the top 5 picked. Rosie ( Ch. Casmir
Moonlight and Roses) received Brood Bitch of the Year award at
the 2006 Clumber Spaniel Club of America National. Rosie had 6
Champions for the year 2006 - most of which were out of one litter.
We are very proud of our breeding program and have some
exciting new prospects coming up.
Axl (AKC Grand Ch.Casmir Guns 'N Red Roses) received his Championship in
just 5 shows at the age of 10 months. He
has been campaigning since 2008 and has been in the top 10
every year since. Axl also
continues to receive multiple Group wins and BOB awards.

Axl has
sired three
litters and already has several champion puppies, with some of
them working on their hunting titles as well.
