Telepathy with a Cat! (lol)

Interesting that you were able to sort out Toby's name like that.
I knew people who took in an adult dog and they wondered what his name was. One of them said "I wonder what they called you when you were tiny". As soon as the dog heard the name Tiny he reacted and he responded to it for the rest of his life.

Libby it is funny how all you dogs came to you and got their names. You are a real dog magnet. 
I can see how the A-Z method would work. The dog must know his name.  If you could guess right the dog would respond. Most people call their pets ordinary names so guessing is possible.

Bullet sounds like a character. You know you love having a dog like that. He is the bad little boy that you just can't be mad at.
