The dogs did pick up her scent. Kevin Dares posted on August 20th to the official FB page the following:
“We had a solid day Saturday with the dogs scenting hard on the southern slope.”
I also think she could have gone in that direction to find privacy and/or take a selfie before heading down.
I don’t think that these dogs were searching for Samantha’s scent though. Based on what the family said around that time, the dogs were trained to pick up any human scent, not just Samantha’s. This would makes sense as by August 20th it’s likely not enough of her scent would remain to create a trail for the dogs to follow.
