I counted 13 people who asked me to show them the difference about lay on  
and lay back this last weekend.  We did hands on, right on their dogs. It  
was like a light bulb went on.   As one exhibitor told me, "now it  clicked".
 
Sometimes we just need to take the time and mentor a fellow dog  lover.

Both  refer to the shoulder blade.  Lay back is the angle of the blade to 
the  ground,
usually preferred to be 45 %.  (BTW, this is true of almost  all breeds)  
Lay on is
more difficult to explain without a picture so  just picture looking at a 
dog from
the front.  You see the shoulders  angling inward toward the top, not 
straight up
and down.  This is the  reason there should be no more than two fingers' 
width
between the blades.  If more than two fingers fit between the top of the 
blades,
the lay  on is not correct. ( BTW again, this is spelled out precisely in 
many  standards)
