Dogs that know, and the stare at your back
Sheldrake’s other pile. Jaytee at the window. The sense of being watched.
Watch first
Start on these channels. Joe is one chair at the table, not the whole room.

Opening file. The short drawer is on the table so the hub card works. Full paper stack still coming.
The claim
Sheldrake filmed a dog named Jaytee who appeared to wait at the window when his owner started home. He also ran stare-detection tests: can you tell when someone behind you is looking? Joe files this next to the maze rats.
Floor of fact. Sheldrake published methods and numbers. Richard Wiseman and others ran replications and got weaker or chance results, then fought over protocol. The stare tests are easy to try at home, which is why they will not die. The extra story is a field between owner and dog. The floor is a pile of videos and a replication war.
Joe’s table
JRE #550 Sheldrake covers this after the rats. Sheldrake’s site still hosts the dog and stare pages.
Start here tonight
sheldrake.org — dogs and staring sections. Then a Wiseman critique.
