I think dogs do have a memory, based on our dog Daisy's behavior. We travel with her, and when we get close to a destination she is familiar with, such as our lake place or our son's or our daughter's place, she gets all excited and whines as though to jump out the window if we don't restrain her. Yesterday we drove over to Hayden Lake to see (and buy) some furniture my wife found on Craig's List. The house we went to there was in an environment she was familiar with (wooded, with a nearby lake), and Daisy did the same number she does when we get near Grandma's Lake (our lake place, at Flathead). She was atrocious because we couldn't let her out to romp and jump in the lake, and she resented it. Dogs probably do live "in the moment" which is something we should aspire to. The grief that we feel when they die is the price we pay for all the love we got when we were in their moment.
