We have always had a list of who we will show our dogs to and who we won't show to, you have to research your judges just as you have to research your breeders.  
I have some nice darker pups coming up and some will consider them too dark/black if I show them too early.  It will take them longer to break so I am not sure at what age yet I will get them in the ring.  They are 6 months now and I am keeping all three of them.  I just hate the fact that now showing puppies to get them socialized we will now hesitate getting them in the ring so they will have experience in that atmosphere and have to research even more to see what judges are going to be DQing them even thou they are not an adult so their color is not a correct color for adult. 
They are in confirmations puppy classes but thats not at all like the noise/atmosphere at a real show.
