No. It can tell whether its a puppy or adult, but not the accurate age. But if your dog is old, it can tell another is a puppy because it normally bounces around happily and playfully while the old dog growls in frustration because it has lost it's hobbies/personality of playfulness.

Dogs do, in fact, remember one another. It comes from their sense of smell. When one dog smells a familiar dog, it will become excited. This is apparent when walking a dog in a familiar neighborhood or in a case where a dog owner has multiple dogs that interact. They either like one another and feel secure, or hate one another and are hostile toward each other. Either way, it goes back to their sense of smell, which, as in humans, is the most closely connected sense to the memory part of the brain.

Before getting another dog you should rule out other things that might be wrong. What type of food are you feeding? Is the right kind for your dog? Is something disturbing the dogs sleeping patterns? Is the dog sick? The best thing would be to consult a vet in your area and have a general checkup done first
