Well not really. The All Breed Shows must run on a set schedule. You are to 
enter your ring at a certain time and leave at at certain time. If you take to 
much time you screw up the whole schedule. There are some judges like me who 
just do not enjoy All Breed Shows and do not participate in those shows. Since 
you are not holding up any other breed, you can take your time and make sure 
that all entries feel that they have gotten a good look at a Specialty Show.

    Rachel,
    -
    AKC says 20 dogs per hour is expected for a new judge, 25 for an experience 
judge. That means 3 minutes per dog for the new judge and 2 minutes and 40 
seconds for the experience judge. We are of course only talking about All Breed 
Shows.

      Then, the judge needs to take the time to look gaiting, loose lead, free 
stand, stacked...plus his hands on should tell him lay of shoulder, back, etc.
      Why only 90 seconds of "handled" handling? So, if you've got that cow 
hock straightened when the judge looks at you, you're ok?
      I really don't get it. But thanks to all of you who are trying to get it 
through my thick skull!

        If the judge had 5 - 10 minutes to evaluate each dog, he or she could
        probably make an accurate evaluation of each animal no matter how
        well or poorly it was shown.  As it is, your dog may only be looked at
        for 90 seconds total - if he is pacing during the 10 seconds the judge 
        sees him gait and standing cow-hocked for the few seconds the judge
        glances down the line of stacked dogs, that can be enough to rule
        you out even if your dog looks fabulous the rest of the time.  A top
        handler doesn't let that happen.  A really competent owner-handler
        might never let that happen either, but if you mess up, you can waste 
        quite a few entry fees on classes you might have won.
