My take on the whole affair is that Snape told Dumbledore that there 
was a traitor in his inner circle of trusted student/wizards. In order 
to flush the suspected traitor Pettigrew out they devised a plan 
through which he, Pettigrew, would think that only he and Sirius would 
know where James and Lily were. The whole thing went wrong in the end 
when Pettigrew, in a stroke of genious/luck, faked his own death and 
Sirius was sent to Azkaban without a trial. As of this moment I believe 
Dumbledore knew that the mauraders were animagii.
