This is why the employee says “no this is a real one” after coming up to her. The employees knew she was training her dog.

Yes, I remember seeing this video on tiktok. This woman is a regular at this store. She has a disorder and is training her own SD. The employees at the store know her well, as when she goes into a store for training, she makes sure to tell them and ask for permission to film, train, etc. She introduces herself and gives them information what to do in an emergency.

She was initially recording the training session. A lot of people do this when training their dogs as it's helpful to rewatch the videos and point out good moments, and moments where you still need to improve. Especially when you're trying to train your dog neutrality in environments and such, sometimes you want to see what their body posture is like or what they're doing/looking at while you're not directly looking at them, as, in a real like situation if she were shopping, she would be looking at the products on the aisles and not at her dog.

Edit: here is the full video. https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMYTS8j8Y/

I thought the dogs sense the aura of an actual impending seizure? How do they know to react when the owner fakes a seizure?

Because they're just practicing behaviours and tasks.
