...and they've got their first order! A U.S. pitbull terrier named Booger, to be exact.
Oh yes. Booger.

"RNL Bio says this is the first time a dog will have been cloned commercially.

'There are many people who want to clone their pet dogs in Western countries even at this high price,' company chief executive, Ra Jeong-chan, told the Korea Times.'

The firm is expecting hundreds more orders for pets over the next few years and also plans to clone dogs trained to sniff out bombs or drugs."

    Imagine how screwed up young kids would be if their pet dog that died, suddenly reappeared. That'd probably freak me out now...and I'm 23.

    Still though, they do look pretty cool.

  • [If I had any,] I definitely wouldn't put my kids through that weirdness.

    Personally, I'd never pay that much for a cloned dog in the first place.
    It wouldn't be the same dog in the way that one would hope; just a genetic copy.
    Far better to save a mutt from the pound.
    Much cheaper, too.

    But oh well; grief is blind and full of hormones. It frays the edges.

  • The owners will come to realize tho the dog will be identical in appearance and in some ways, behavior. It won't be anything like the original. Personality begins within and grows beyond.
