If I recall correctly, the claim was that the dogs were able to repeat their correct predictions no matter how much the pattern of the owner's movements was changed. Or rather, even when there was no pattern.

What's important here is not the validity of Sheldrake's work (I wouldn't know about that either way), it's the fact that Randi lied about it.

Here's an article that discusses the problems with Randi's million dollar challenge in depth:
