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 in the same ring to go to
adjacent sites in the ring and--if you do it long enough--end up where you started.
Basically this is a circular journey to all the websites within a particular ring theme.
In this case, the theme is dedicated to the Anatolian Shepherd
Dog - the Turkish breed of Livestock Guardian Dog (LGD) known world-wide as the Anatolian.
What is the Anatolian Shepherd?
This breed, originating in ancient regions of Anatolia in
Turkey, appears in a variety of types, which like all historic working breeds, has not
been stagnant over time. Some of these varieties have been designated as separate breeds
over the last quarter of this century. In many countries, there are a variety of names for
different specific phenotypes of the breed and it is with this understanding, that the Anatolian Webring bases
its breed definition.
Information about WebRings.
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 for 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!
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 via use of this forum.
Helpful information includes that which helps the webring surfer to understand that these
primitive guardian dogs have breed character of a type that requires a level of
responsibility that not all are prepared to assume.
Is your site eligible?
Requirements for sites submitted to the
Anatolian Shepherd Dog WebRing
Anatolians and/or their varieties (Akbash and Kangal Dogs) MUST be featured on at
least one page of your site, and this page shall include the Anatolian Shepherd Dog
WebRing Logo.
Great pictures, articles and/or stories that contribute to a well-balanced
presentation of Anatolians are encouraged. It does not have to be a 'serious' page, i.e.,
a family oriented page with training stories of these dogs is likely to be entertaining
yet still giving insight into breed character. Photos of pets, working, and/or show dogs
are welcome!
You must edit the html code on your web page in order to link
your site to this ring. Put the code on the page that has the ASD content; it should be
easy for the average person to navigate their way back to the WebRing link to continue a
circuit of the ring.
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 Anatolian Shepherd Dog WebRing
contains subject appropriate to family and of benefit to the breed.
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.
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 Anatolians that are
abused, neglected, or directly involved with the production of dogs (pure and not) that
must be handled by Rescue services, site participation on this WebRing will be terminated.
Your Anatolian Webring Page should have no broken links.
Your Anatolian Webring Page should not be primarily only a collection of
other WebRings
Your Anatolian Webring Page should not be purely commercial in nature --
such as "hallway" or "front-door" pages for sites NOT specifically
featuring Anatolian breed-related materials or information.
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!
The Ringmaster reserves the right use personal discretion to
accept or decline any site.
Submit your site to the Anatolian Shepherd Dog WebRing Queue, via the JOIN button of
the Anatolian Webring.There are two types of fragments you can use in the
webring. This one is from the webring SSNB code. The drawback to this one is that it is
very specific about the address of your website so if there are minor changes, the entire
code needs to be changed.
RING LOGO

To browse visit Here.
This is the type ring code logo that comes automatically from the webring.If you want
to have the bigger fancier one such as at the bottom of this page, then follow the
remaining directions
Download the two Logo images below.
Put the images into your webpage directory. Send me the ringID number of your
anatolianring site.
Insert the HTML coding sent you by the ringmaster 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 Anatolian Shepherd Dog
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 Ringmaster gets your email stating that your site is ready for critique; if
the HTML fragment is up; if the Anatolian WebRing logo is on your page, and your site has
appropriate content--the Ringmaster 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!
Go to the Webring site of
your ID to edit. You can change your site location, your email address and other info you
initially gave for your site.
The Anatolian Shepherd Dog WebRing Logo
The AnatolianRing is represented by the logo of the fawn dog. If this code is not on
your page, your ringcode is definitely broken.
This is the Larger Logo used by the older sites and those that want the two-dog
Logo. And apparently, this is the most stable version of the webring code -- especially if
you make frequent changes to your site.
This Anatolian Shepherd Dog WebRing site is owned by Janice Frasche'.
BELOW: this is the JAVA ring code that is automatically generated from the
location of your website and other parameters. Therefore, the java code version is easily
broken when you make changes to your website and unfortunately, it can also give false
positives if other ring code on your page uses similar off-site code. The two-dog version
above is more stable and much easier to find on a busy page when ring surfing.
