1. A little bit further in this episode (I know, I know, I'm slow), Tsakiris talks about his story of a soldier coming back home and the dog is especially agitated and excited.
But in the Skeptiko videos, the dog looks more sleepy than anything else.
So if the dog is sleepy, it's a hit, if the dog is excited, it's a hit, if the owner come back home it's a hit, if the son of the owner come back home, it's a hit, if the postman come to the door, it's a hit...
I really wonder what's not a hit for Tsakiris & co.
By the way, you should rename the phenomena:
"The dogs that knows when anyone related in anyway to the house is coming to it".
2. In the second video on YouTube, Tsakiris states that
"the dogs are less likely to wait when someone is in the house". But here Sheldrake states:
Quote:

And we did a similar number with the dog alone in her own apartment. And, although the dog showed the behavior when it was alone, it was much weaker and, you know, it waited less long. It did it less frequently and, instead of statistic, there’s significant fact. But it wasn’t as much.

So Sheldrake says the exact opposite of what says Tsakiris in his video, but hey, no problem, Alex doesn't react to this at all. He just agree:
Come on Alex. He stating the opposit of what you're claiming and the only thing you can say is "right"... You must be joking...
