PS Though Cetacea is right that this has nothing to do with Swiss German. However, it isn't German for Switzerland either (whatever that might be, dunno). It's not marked as such in the Duden: https://www.duden.de/rechtschreibung/einstallen
Björn Vrooman Aug 9, 2019:
@Ramey An interesting point: When consulting several dictionaries, I found that in American English, you seem to be able to "stable" all kinds of animals. However, in the UK, people seem to stable horses only.

https://dictionary.cambridge.org/de/worterbuch/englisch/stab...
https://www.ldoceonline.com/dictionary/stable
https://www.oxfordlearnersdictionaries.com/definition/englis...

Another two US dictionaries, in addition to the one you mentioned (Random House and ADH):
https://www.dictionary.com/browse/stable
https://www.thefreedictionary.com/stable

Maybe that squares with what David said.

Best wishes

@David It's a common verb in animal husbandry https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/stable

stalling

For bobcat mitigation on sheep only operations, stalling, herding, and fencing were all reported to be ineffective and guard animals were reported to only be slightly effective (Fig. 4A). In contrast, the lethal methods were reported to be very or moderately effective. On cattle only operations, all of the lethal options were reported as very effective, stalling and guard animals were reported as moderately effective, fencing and herding were reported as not effective.

Peer comment(s):

agree Cetacea : However, there's no "Swiss German" involved (if that were the case, the asker wouldn't understand a thing, since it's a language of its own). This is German for Switzerland, and if one's not familiar with that, maybe it would be best to refuse the job...
