Yes dogs have unique scents that they can recognize. Whether or not they would remember after years is another question. It would depend on how long they were together before splitting up, what age they were when they split up, and how long they were apart.

I swear, humans' poor sense of smell sometimes makes us like a blind person studying art, keenly aware of sculpture by hopeless at understanding paintings.

Imagine how much more we'd know about the natural world if we weren't almost "blind" to one of the most important senses of most animals.
