     No, it's really a terribly missunderstood  term, and most reps pay no 
attention as long as it is not ridiculous  (jumping up and down, waving cats in 
the air, LOL
  etc. . I see it as no different from the Dobe folks waving huge chunks  of 
liver, or the terrier folks waving their little false furry squeeky  mice, etc. 
 Our shepherds
  are smart, let's face it.  Once around smartly, and they look at us and say, 
"I've
  just done that !!!!.  They are not motivated to do it again unless  we bring 
them a reason.  A sheep would motivate , but AKC is going  to be much less 
acceping
  of your bringing a sheep to the ring than a bell.  Don't fret it; just be 
discreet, and
  don't make a fool of yourself or run over anyone.

  I am looking for the specific language in the AKC rules regarding  
double-handling. All I was able to find was this (from the "Rules,  Policies 
and Guidelines for Conformation Dog Show Judges"):
  
  Double Handling - Evaluate each dog solely on its merit without regard  to 
outside influences such as double handling. Double handling can  usually be 
eliminated by announcing to exhibitors and ringside that you  will not tolerate 
the practice. You may excuse any dog from
  competition if you believe someone or something is influencing its  
performance or showmanship other than the dog�s handler in the  ring. If 
there are unnecessary disturbances outside your ring, you may  call for the 
Show Chairman or the AKC Field Representative.
  
  Anyone out there have the rules for exhibitors?
  TIA!
