Stay
I pulled into a crowded parking lot and rolled down the car windows to make sure my Labrador retriever had fresh air.
She was stretched out on the back seat, and I wanted to impress upon her that she must remain there.
I walked to the curb backward, pointing my finger at the car and saying emphatically, "Now you stay. Do you hear me? Stay!"
The driver of a nearby car gave me a startled look.
"I don't know about you, lady," he said incredulously. "But I usually just put my car in park."
