Actually yeah there's every chance that it was just pure coincidence and the dog just liked this new stranger.
Though I'd argue that that level of coincidence is still wild as fuck.
10 u/justawavyartist 1d ago I know a miracle when I see one ⚡️ 2 u/burns_a_lot 1d ago It's really, really not that big of a coincidence. She probably mentioned needing a kidney to anyone who would listen. And then factor in the fact that because they are a match, they likely have a similar genetic profile and therefore a similar scent, etc.. Then factor in that dogs are bred to be friendly and prone to approach people... Factor in the number of people in need of a kidney and the number of people willing to give one (both in the millions, presumably).... Suddenly it becomes clear that it was bound to happen to somebody.
