If Casey has a history of stealing gas, and nothing else of value was taken from the shed, I don't think it's too much of a stretch to suppose that she was responsible for this most recent theft.
Perhaps the shovel was indeed borrowed from the neighbor in order to break the lock.
About the decomp hits in the back yard - what if it wasn't Caylee's body that was placed there, but something that Casey was carrying that had come into contact with the body, like a purse or a satchel or even a big plastic trash bag?
Would the dogs have hit on something that had picked up the smell (or maybe fluid), but wasn't actually a body?
I do think Casey is responsible for the gas theft, as she probably knew there was gas stored in the shed. The break-in of the shed and the gas theft may not have anything to do with Caylee being missing.
Yes, I think anything that may have come in contact with a deceased body could leave a scent for the cadaver dogs to pick up on. On NG the cadaver dog handler used a sheet that had covered a cadaver, and that sheet was rolled up into a plastic container. The container was hidden and the dog found it.
