What is the Irish Water Spaniel WebRing?

The WebRing is a circular journey through member websites having a common theme. The idea is that once you are at one site in the webring, you can click on a "Next" or "Previous" link to go to adjacent sites in the ring and--if you do it long enough--end up where you started. In this case, the theme is dedicated to the Irish Water Spaniel.

Information about WebRing.

WebRing is a free service allows web sites with similar interest to form "rings" of sites, allowing netizens a fast and efficient way to find content and a great way for sites to build traffic and gain exposure member web sites.
Note: Occasionally the webring server is a bit dysfunctaional or especially slow, be patient and try again at a later time to do whatever you were trying to do. Unfortunately, this downtime also applies to those that are attempting webring management!

The objectives of this WebRing.

To help unify our various groups and to help educate those interested in these dogs, so that informed decisions can be made by those seeking to acquire one.
This WebRing hopes to inform and entertain those who already have one or more of these magnificent dogs AND those "just looking" and surfing the web will get an opportunity to see some of these dogs for the first time by use of this forum.
Helpful information includes that which helps the webring surfer to understand that these dogs have breed character of a type that requires a level of responsibility that not all are prepared to assume.

Requirements for sites submitted
to the
Irish Water Spaniel WebRing

1. Irish Water Spaniels MUST be featured on at least one page of your site, and this page shall include the Irish Water Spaniel WebRing Logo.
2. Great pictures, articles and/or stories that contribute to a well-balanced presentation of IWS are encouraged. It does not have to be a 'serious' page, i.e., a page with training stories of these dogs is likely to be entertaining yet still giving insight into breed character.
3. You must edit the html code on your web page in order to link your site to this ring, and if there are several pages, it should be easy for the average person to navigate their way back to the WebRing link, so people can continue on their circuit of the ring.
4. Your page should have no broken links. Nor should it be primarily only a collection of other WebRings.
5. The Ringmaster of this WebRing does not necessarily endorse any or all individuals, breeders, organizations, or other entities which join the ring. However the Ringmaster does make every reasonable attempt to assure that the Irish Water Spaniel WebRing contains subject appropriate to family and of benefit to the breed.
   1. Your site must be "G" rated and contain legal material. No adult material or links to anything that is adult in nature, nor endorsements of anything that is of illegal content or of questionable ethics. This is a family oriented WebRing.
   2. Any site that is listed must NOT be involved in brokering, puppy milling and sales to pet shops. If any listing is reported to be the source of IWS that are abused, neglected, or directly involved with the production of an undisclosed number of IWS that must be handled by Rescue services, participation on this WebRing will be terminated.
6. It is tremendous work to keep up with each website and every link, so if there is a reported problem with one or more sites, sites in question may be removed from the ring. Sites containing illegal material may be removed with or without notice.

• Submit your site to the Irish Water Spaniel WebRing Queue, via the link above. (If you send an this application to join the ring, you will get an email containing an HTML fragment that is already customized with your site ID number).
• Insert the HTML coding sent you by the email application autoresponder into your web page.
• When you get done with all that, you should have the WebRing Logo on your page with no broken links and the images correctly referenced.
• After completing all the steps given, please email me and let me know your page is ready to be critiqued.

The addition of your webpage to the Irish Water Spaniel WebRing is NOT automatic. Your site will first go into a group queue. This gives you time to complete the coding and do your self-critique. The WebRingmaster does NOT code your pages for you, so if after about 30 days of submitting your request to the Queue to join the ring, and if your page content is not yet ready, your request is automatically removed from the Queue. You can resubmit your request for addition, if you just needed more time to 'get it right..

After I get your email stating that your site is ready for critique; if the HTML fragment is up; if the Irish Water Spaniel WebRing logo is on your page, and your site has appropriate content--I will add your site to the WebRing. The ring is not checked on a daily basis, and occasionally one or more functions of the WebRing service may have server problems, so there may be some waiting involved. Patience helps!
