No, most people wear shoes when they're running from law enforcement or lost in the woods and that would keep their foot sweat contained. Dogs track several things. The strongest scent comes from crushed vegetation and disturbed earth. The actual scent of the person comes off in dead skin cells and chemicals released from the skin. Even dressed head to toe in winter gear a person still gives off enough scent for a dog to track them.
