A Dog That Seems to Know When His Owner Is Coming Home: Effect of Environmental Variables

Initial observations by Sheldrake and Smart from 1994 through 1997
suggested that a male terrier dog named Jaytee was able to anticipate
when Smart was returning home. In a later series of 45 formal videotaped
experiments, Jaytee's anticipatory behavior proved to be significantly
accurate. Although Jaytee's performance was remarkably accurate on average,
sometimes he failed to anticipate his owner's return. Analysis of environmental
variables on the days of the tests suggests that Jaytee's behavior was
significantly affected by changes in a complex assortment of geomagnetic
and other environmental factors.
