There is this dog(German Shepard) I left some years ago. I am not sure if it would still remember my face and I don't want to be attacked by a dog too

I help my friend in housing his Lhasa when he was a puppy for 5 days we played chasing during these 5days I feed him and bath him. We both moved out of the street for over a year now my place is not too far from his but I hardly go there went there last month and the dog could sense that I’m around he was already the barking and wagging his tail before the door was opened for me, I last saw him and played with him early this year. It’s not just the face, I think the scent matters a lot too

A dog can still sense your smell, face and even voice after many years of last contact with it

not true bro. I thought the same too until my sister came visiting. it has been almost a year she saw my dog last. surprisingly my dog was jumping happily to see her. I believe dogs work with scent and voice than face. that's why when you apply a different perfume they'll smell you all day.

Dogs like elephants do not forget at all, a neighbor had a puppy which was generally loved and catered for by all members of the compound, less than a month later, everybody packed out of the compound, all to different destinations, in about a year and half later, i went to a compound to do something in another environ, lo and behold "Atiku" for that was the dog's name and she was damn crazy when she saw me, she was jumping all over me wagging tail and hugging ; it happened that she just whelped the previous night, to the landlord's surprise, i followed her to where the pups where and even carried some of them in my hand ; the landlord who is a friend couldn't make a thing out of what was on display before him, until the owner showed up and was shocked too because the dog is a very hostile one towards strangers.
I was later gifted a pup out of the batch

wrong again...i never said yöu were wrong just 'cos i have the option as yöu claim....but dogs do forget people over a period of time if they dont get to see...not as yöu claim it is impossible.
my sister had a dog she breed as a puppy to adult...she later sold due to her getting married and relocating to another state...after some period...roughly a year plus...she went back to the state and decided to visit the person she sold the dog to...the dog wont even let her come close...he dint recognize her again. this was a dog she took care of from puppy stage...dog that was so attached to her it would not even leave her side.

First you say dogs forget people...

But u have just one case to buttress your point...and it’s not even a personal experience ...
Dude....I’ve been keeping dogs since I was 8....
So don’t come and tell me about someone else’s dog u have only little knowledge about

Mr "I have been keeping dogs since I was 8" does that make you an expert on dogs? I have many instances but just gave one example to drive home my point....exactly how many instances should I have given? I expected you to buttress your point why you think dogs don't forget by giving your own instances only to tell me you have been training dogs since age 8.
don't be adamant with what you know...always be ready to learn,unlearn and relearn new things.
dogs do forget...the duration it takes my depend on the individual dog but eventually they do...even humans with superior memory forget faces(until you remind them by rejiging their memory)talk more of dogs. happy Sunday.

Learn from u.?? Really?? U are trying to sound motivational....come on man...u and I know ur advice and lectures are better shoved in ur asss where they belong...

...u don't even have a dog....I doubt uve raised one before let alone two or more...you are not a vet, neither are you an wild life expert...yet u want to give lectures because u aunt had a dog....

Why would I want to waste my time explaining myself to you that told me straight up that I'm wrong when u don't even have any personal experience of leaving the dog u raised for many years....

Someone that doesn’t own a dog, never raised a dog, is calling me ignorant....guy.. you are highly repulsive....
calling me ur boy won’t make you sound brighter or better...the fact that you are comparing human sensory system to dogs shows the level of knowledge you have.....u keep trying to pass on knowledge u don’t have...guy... who does that for crying out loud...

***yawns***
exactly why I don't argue with Buffon's and morons....show me were in my statement I called you MY boy....cry baby...you have cried,abused, made allegations and insulted me...but yet to provide a single point to back your argument that dogs DO NOT forget people.
you know for a minute I was tempted to post pictures of my dogs- I have 3 of them. one just littered on the 8th of this November... butvi don't need to prove nothing to a stubborn, adamant and arrogant ignoramus. for you information I don't need to own a dog to have information or knowledge about them. infact,I don't need to have seen a dog,monkey or elephant to have knowledge and information about their behaviour.... that's what books,TV,Internet etc are there for and not to watch pornographic videos. there are tons of information in these places I mentioned if you have the interest to learn.
you have written a whole mumble jumble of thrash but haven't even mentioned one point to back your reason for saying dogs don't forget asides the useless information that you have been training dogs since 8.
I know your type learning new things is difficult for your brain to cope with...the worst type of ignoramus ate those that are unwilling to learn...they won't even accept they do not know.
don't bother quoting me...I am done with you....I don't like wasting my time... I have wasted my time so far with you. happy Sunday.

Dogs can never forget you till he dies. Talking from experience. I didn't even take care of Willy till adult. Just 6 months and left him for a year plus. Only my voice the dog was crazy. I was surprised he recognized me.

Its all about the scent and something else i cant explain, and it may vary with breeds. If it were a guy that dog will never forget him. Women carry different hairstyles, have different scents due to; haircream, body lotion, body spray and perfumes. There is a chance your sister smelt and looked totally different, dont blame the dog.

Dogs can store alot of scents and they dont forget easily, only when sick or out old age.

indirectly your saying the same thing I said...they do eventually forget....the reason I quoted that guy was 'cos he said "lai lai". I have similar experiences with guys too...and as you stated scents can confuse them...that's why you see some sniffing and re sniffing at times....the crux of the matter is they do forget...I think you agree on that?
