Doggy

My friend is looking for his pet dog who's been walking around the room the whole time. And I say:

He's a 200lb animal going in and out of the place, how could/can you miss him?

Or

He's a 200lb animal going in and out of the place, how could you have missed him?

Are all useable and interchangeable?

Thank you.

Why, here, yes? Is it not okay somewhere else?

Thanks!

If you are talking about a long past search, then only the 2nd sentence seems reasonable.
