Starts with a dog being found by a hiker. Can understand all spoken English but hides it's abilities. Being followed by it's "evil twin", the other extreme of the experiment, that wants to kill. Read in the 1990s?

Book found: Watchers by Dean Koontz

Sounds similar to Watchers by Dean Koontz, which I read in the late 80s. I looked up the plot on Wikipedia, and I'm sure it's your book:

Glad to help. I remember enjoying it and I must give it a re-read someday.
