I don't think he had a choice.  I believe he could not hold his animal form.  He has some happy memories now, sending Harry the Firebolt, seeing Harry playing Quiditch, Harry telling him he wanted to come and live with him.  With as many Dementors as was there sucking away his happy memories plus his tumultuous feelings due to the fact that his imprisonment/life on the run was about to come to an end, he could not handle the Dementors sucking all that away, thus he was not able to hold his animagus form.

But once he sees dementors, why does he change back into a man?  He 
knows that dementors can't see, so why not stay a dog?  In Azkaban, 
he once managed to slip past the dementors as a dog.  Changing into a 
man seems like a losing proposition from the start.

Any theories out there?
