VIDEOS/COMMENTS:
 The second set of three took a bit longer because I had d0g sit and wait while I changed shaker and cans.  in the first three sets he just stood and waited.  

*1  I did not rotate the wheel but changed the scent each time putting it in a different can
*2  The scent remained in the same can  # 4, but I rotated the wheel after each fine.  dog  remained in the      
     room
*3  I changed the scent to can #2 and dog left the room after each find and before I rotated the wheel
*4  This was done the same as *1 placing the scent in a different can after each find.  Also I had dog sit and   
     wait as I changed cans.  
*5  Scent was in can # 1  and wheel rotated after each find.
*6  Scent in can #, dog left the room before the wheel was rotated
