I think Annoying Dog and Dogcheck may refer to Watchdog, a method used in computer systems to detect and recover from malfunction. Although Dogcheck is not a timer like Watchdog, the similar name and function (as far as to detect malfunction) makes me hard to not think this is a deliberate allusion. Especially as Toby must have a decent knowledge on programming, he likely knows this term and couldn't miss to play out a joke on it.

Here's the article on Watchdog from the other wiki: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Watchdog_timer

This could be mentioned in the Annoying Dog article as trivia. But I thought to ask for your opinions first.
