There was this dog that started coming by my house. I liked him and he liked me A LOT! He would get excited when he saw me outside and come running, and would sit in my lap like a baby. He was a short-ish, squat black lab. I didn't know who he belonged to. One time, I asked him, "what is your name?" In my head, I immediately heard "Alfredo", and it looked like he was actually smiling at me (with his tongue hanging out and his tail wagging like mad). So, I called him "Alfredo".

Months later, I was sitting on the porch in my front yard petting this dog, and I saw a man walking on the sidewalk a ways down. He was looking around, yelling "Alfredo". The dog heard the man and ran to him!

I never saw the dog again! This is all true.
