Why "Stacking"?

This is a question for the Confirmation Breeders & Handlers out there...

Why do they call the show stance "Stacking"?
 
darned if I know, and I've been doing it most of my life! :lol:

Then there's "hard-stacking", where you pose the dog by hand (a la Irish Setter), and "free-stacking" (or free baiting) when you have the dog stand up himself...
 
Maybe it's like stacking plates... making order out of disorder.

You may be on to something:smile2:
