Stubborn stare-off

Jess found a very appealing prize (already dead) on our walk today.

drop Jess...
drop....
DROP...
DROP

Once I'd given her the command I couldn't let her ignore it and so this was the stalemate state of affairs after about 20 minutes.  Both of us unblinking, no tails were wagging and there was definitely no crunching...

She dropped it in the end, once I'd marched her back to the car and she'd jumped in the boot, she released it without a fuss and on command.  I guess it had turned out not to be as much fun as she thought.
