3. When the food is all gone, she still was adimently looking for more, sniffing deep in the grass, when/how do you make her stop? Just pull her out, make her heel, reward with a treat from you had and congratulate her?

That is why we never use the square, we always started the way I describe, with the ball at the end, when they don't look at the ball we put sometimes food, as a reward knowing it is the end of the track!
Tracking from footstep to footstep is not common by all schutzh people, a lot of GSD people learn it that way. We mostly put the food in the middle between the footsteps, With IPO 1 you lay your track yourself, IPO2 will be done by a tracklayer, with your own articels, IPO3 will be done by a tracklayer with other articels than from yourself, we first learn the dog tracking and when he can track we started it with other people who lay the track.
