B Correct answer
Explanation

If dogs are in a line and one dog sees 'two in front of me' while another sees 'two behind me', they must be at different positions. For 3 dogs: the last dog sees 2 dogs ahead, the first dog sees 2 dogs behind. The middle dog can also confirm seeing one in front and one behind. This arrangement satisfies both statements.
