Skylar spent an hour chomping on her bully stick last night and if she chews on it too long it upsets her stomach. As I have been actively working on her stubbornness, I decided to test whether she would drop it with the “leave it” command instead of just taking it from her.  This is how the next few minutes unfolded:
Me: Leave it
Skylar: Big eyed stare, bully stick dangling from mouth
Me: Skylar, leave it!
Skylar: Stare
Me: LEAVE IT
Skylar: Acts as if she’s leaning down to drop it but doesn’t actually drop it
Me: Leave it (trying not to laugh)
Skylar: BURRRP (while still holding the dangling bully stick)
Me: Dies
Skylar: Runs under bed with bully stick
