I don't think they do understand it was an accident, but obviously they will forget about it and still love you. On the first day I went to visit my dog (before he was mine), he walked over to me and hit his head on the coffee table. After that he was terrified of me since he thought I had hit him on the head.. He loves me now and probably has no recollection of that.
