Orlando (CNN) -- Jurors will hear more forensic evidence in the Casey Anthony trial Wednesday, a day after experts testified that a trained dog alerted them to the smell of human remains in the suspect's car.

A dog trained to locate remains alerted its handler to the smell of human remains in the trunk of Anthony's car and a corner of her parents' backyard, a K-9 handler testified Tuesday.

When the dog, Gerus, passed around Anthony's white Pontiac Sunfire on July 17, 2008, "he started indicating in the rear of the vehicle," said Jason Forgey, a sheriff's deputy in Orange County, Florida.

"I could tell he was working something."

He said Gerus also alerted in the southeast corner of the Anthony's back yard. However, during a cross-examination that grew testy at times, Forgey told defense attorney Jose Baez that after technicians examined the area and scraped the surface of the land, he returned the following day and the dog did not alert in the backyard.
