I met Leri while waiting for Hilde, the ancient GSD, to take her CGC.
"She won't pass!" I wailed. "Her 'stay' isn't good."
"Rehearse." Leri said. "Put her on 'stay'."
I did, and when Hilde bunched herself to rise, Leri hooked a finger
around her collar. After a couple of tries, Hilde gave up.
"It won't last," Leri said. "But it'll last through her test."
She was right on both counts.
