Training the Chain - Day 17


I did NOT refresh the sample as planned.  Today the opportunity to test presented itself, so I decided to take a chance and train with the 17 day old sample.  Raya's immediate response to the testing surprised me.  So we learned something about sample viability at Day 17.

I have noticed, too, that Raya does NOT alert to residual odor.  By switching from L side to R side, she sniffs but does not target or alert to the previous location of the target scent.
