Some call it serendipity, we call it the Doggo Distribution System.

In feline circles it is well known that there is a Cat Distribution System that delivers cats without a home to pawrents who are looking to take on a cat child or three. A system which is incredibly important for felines seeing as they are a rather anti-social bunch who have difficulties trusting hoomans. Which means that the doggo equivalent is often overlooked or unknown as most doggos are trusting and friendly enough that they will seek out hooman help when they need it.

So to come across a story posted to Reddit's r/chowchow subreddit in which it is clear that the Doggo Distribution System has been involved is not only rare but truly exciting. In this case bringing this dog lover the pawfect pupper, their dream dog if you will, seemingly thanks to the support of this pawrent's previous puppers who guided the chow chow puppy to his front door. Happy endings like this come but once in a dog year.

We do not want to jinx it, but this sounds like a case involving the mystical powers of the doggo distribution system. A little known power that exists in this universe with the single aim of bringing together doggos and the hoomans who need them. And it seems that after hoping and wishing for another Chow Chow to enter his life, this man’s wish came true. The pawfect pupper, with no strings attached or nasty surprises. It is a very welcome change from some of the harrowing things rescue pupper pawrents have to go through. So, what more could you ever want?

As we mentioned earlier, this has to be a case where some sort of mystical power has been involved. Otherwise there is no explaining the serious serendipity of this encounter, nor how this doggo turned up without a chip, with house manners and with no health issues at all. Things like this simply do not happen in your bog standard doggo rescue story. This can only be the work of the doggo distribution system, perhaps in collusion with this dog lover’s previous puppers. Whatever forces made this possible, we are just glad to see a dog lover’s dreams come true, there is nothing harder than overcoming the pain of losing a dog child.
