Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! If Hachi didn’t lose consciousness then there was no harm done. Dogs are very resilient and hard headed. It was an accident and you didn’t cause any harm. I don’t think his memory was affected. He just might not have heard you or was ignoring you as dogs do! If he’s otherwise acting fine I wouldn’t worry! I hope this helps!
