One of Clive Wynne's big ideas - mentioned several times - is that dogs pick up on what articles their owners are taking out with them. A simple control for this would be to ask the owner (sorry, I forget her name) to take all her gear with her (assuming she can fit into the boot of her car) every time she does a test.

Just to clarify, I'm working with them to identify new dog/owners in Gainesville (close to the University of Florida). I'm hoping to resume trials with Tommy in California (the dog on my YouTube video), but the owners family is unable to do this right now.
