To nitpick the nitpick - but when the boggart turns to a Dementor for 
Harry's benefit, it is a Dementor and should affect Lupin as such. If 
you recall from the overcome-your-worst-fear lesson, everybody could 
see and be affected by what the boggart turned into (the banshee, for 
instance, gave Harry the creeps, IIRC).
