Most dogs will remember their owners. Especially if the dog you own lives with you and gets to be around you a lot. Like lets say if you go on vacation and you have to leave your dog in a kennel, your dog is not going to forget you. When you come to pick him/her up then the should still remember you. If they don't then maybe you should have your vet take a look at him for some sort of memory loss thing.

no they don't. after the're taken away that is. sometimes the person that snuggles up to the puppy/dog most might mistake him/her for his mom. I know that's CARZY:|

the dog would warm up to their owner making them believe that they are there bialogical mother or father

They might recognize the smell, but I don't know. Maybe not. My dog seems to remember her sister when they play together.
