So I guess they dont go far from say a 3 mile area, and with their sense of smell, when they locate something that belongs to their human, they just stay there and wait for their human to return.
That's a sweet story and worth trying. If the piece of clothing disappears because you are in the city or something, you could just bring another article of clothing each time you returned to the spot.
