hey,

it's been a while since i have been here. i was talking about moving and didn't know to take my dog or not. unfortunately i had to leave him... he was crying alot when i hugged him and left. i didn't like that at all. i been thinking about him ever since almost everyday... it's been almost five months now. i couldn't take him cause i had to stay with my uncle and he didn't want dogs around. so i left him with my dad and brother who the dog already knows. the flight for the dog to come to me is a bit pricey but i will work it out in a week or so and bring him here. i am just wondering if he will remember me? i've heard stories that people leave their dogs for a year or more and come back and they remember?

i have been good to my dog and i bathed him and took him for long walks everyday. he slept with me in my bed almost everyday... i played with him and loved him alot. but my dad and bro are saying he is happy and having a good time. i don't want him to forget me :/

any thoughts on this? stories would be nice to give me some hope.

p.s: he is 2 years old atm. we got him at 3 months old.

Chance if he's that dumb you don't want him. Of course he will remember you. Last yr I trained a Mastiff that was in training for 40 days and the owner brought him back for boarding about 6 months after training was finished and as I was walking across yard 90 ft from dog I called and he ripped lead out of owner's hand(wasn't expecting it)and charged to me. (doesn't help my dog trainer reputation much, but I was pleased) People constantly ask me if dog will forget them and I always have same answer, If dog is that dumb I can't train them. It's just never happened.

I have no idea what happened to 1st reply but what I said is that I saw nothing not normal. When you 1st called him he was in crate and may or may not have been sure of voice. When he got out of crate and could actually identify you he acted great. The 8 hrs in crate did him no harm but the actual new travel experience may have tired him a bit and now that he has you back he can relax.
