Snape is, apparently, questioning Dumbledore about Lupin's appointment as the Dark Arts Professor. This ironically mirrors the same suspicions others will express about Snape in the future. Despite the obvious things that Snape does at Dumbledore’s behest, such as making the [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Wolfsbane Potion|Wolfsbane Potion]] for Lupin and giving Harry [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Books/Order of the Phoenix/Chapter 24|Occlumency lessons]] in [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Books/Order of the Phoenix|''Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix'']], Snape’s [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Severus Snape|Death Eater history]] cannot be easily forgotten, or forgiven. Snape, however, has either fully accepted the Ministry story about Sirius, or is using it to suit his own ends, and will express the belief that Lupin, who was fast friends with Sirius, the late [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/James Potter|James Potter]], and the supposedly late [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Peter Pettigrew|Peter Pettigrew]], is helping his old friend enter the castle undetected. However, Dumbledore trusts both Snape and Lupin and does not publicly entertain doubts regarding either man's loyalty.
 
Snape has known that Lupin is a werewolfWerewolf since their school days together at Hogwarts. We learn that, as students, Pettigrew and Sirius tricked Snape into going to the tunnel leading to the [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Places/Shrieking Shack|Shrieking Shack]] while Lupin was transformed. This would have proven fatal to Snape if not for James Potter's intervention. While Snape likely has agreed to conceal that Lupin's is a werewolfcondition, his werewolfWerewolf lecture while substituting for Lupin's class is an attempt to circumvent that restriction. Snape hopes a student will recognize those characteristics in Lupin and reveal them to classmates, and they, in turn, will tell their parents, who likely will pressure Dumbledore to dismiss Lupin. Luckily for Lupin, only Hermione discovers that Lupin is a werewolfWerewolf, a discovery she reveals to no one, including Harry and Ron.
 
The large black dog that Harry sees is Sirius Black in his Animagus form, coming to watch his godson playing Quidditch, though Harry fears it is a Grim. During the game, Harry is nearly injured when the Dementors appear on the pitch. The juxtaposition of the dog and Harry's nearly falling to his death will reinforce Harry's belief that he is seeing a Grim, rather than a dog. Harry continues to fret about this until one night when he sees the dog with Crookshanks. Once he has this proof that the dog is physical rather than spectral, his fear passes. Sirius later apologizes for having scared Harry.
 
One point that is never addressed in this book is the fact that Lupin knows that Sirius is an unregistered Animagus. Lupin may be able to guess that it is in his dog shape that Sirius is evading the Dementors. It is never explained why Lupin doesnever not mentionmentions this quite important possibility to Dumbledore, particularly after Sirius is found to have gained entrance to the castle. It is easier to guess why Snape, if he was aware of it, would not be telling Dumbledore. Snape, we see in this chapter, retains a very powerful grudge against Lupin for events of his school days, and in a later chapter is found to have convinced himself that Lupin is somehow helping Sirius enter the castle. As awareness that Sirius can transform to a dog and evade the guards would weaken this theory substantially, Snape has forgotten it, if he ever knew it. Given his disbelief, in a later chapter, in the identity of Scabbers, however, we believe Snape is simply unaware of Sirius' Animagus ability.
