At  WCOL  we aim to offer an unbiased platform for discussions. We are not here to judge or be prejudicial. We do not want to discourage healthy constructive debates on all topics, after all,that's the whole purpose of the forum. However, we are NOT here to enforce one individuals opinion on the majority, and should remember that everyone is entititled to express their own opinion. Mutual respect is required at all times. Any personal issues arising from debates, should either be addressed to the individual concerned, or brought to the attention of myself or the moderators, not dicussed in the Open Forum.

At WCOL myself and my moderators are not here to take the moral highground on any subject. Although we all have our own principals and ethics as breeders, we do not presume to enforce our own thinking as being unequalled.  We AIM to be objective and approachable on any issue and endeavour to remain impartial.

This is not just a forum for breeders, we actively encourage all types of members, the main criteria being our love of the working variety of cocker spaniel.We want the forum to be a productive useful resource for all those interested in all aspects of the cocker, their personalities,their training, and just sharing the pleasure they bring to each of us on all different  levels.

In summary a place where people can post, with no fear of recrimination, knowing that they will receive constructive helpful discussion on whatever topic they areinterested in.
