UM-Bot Posted February 19, 2008 #1 Share Posted February 19, 2008 A South Korean company says it has taken its first order for the cloning of a pet dog. A woman from the United States wants her dead pitbull terrier - called Booger - re-created. RNL Bio is charging the woman, from California, $150,000 (£76,000) to clone the pitbull using tissue extracted from its ear before it died. The work will be carried out by a team from Seoul National University, where the first dog was cloned in 2005.

brothers Posted February 20, 2008 #3 Share Posted February 20, 2008 It will not be the same dog no matter how you clone it. It looks like my dog, it barks like my dog but its not doing the same thing like my dog. In other words its thinking processes will not be the same not have the same memory as the original dog.

BlueZone Posted February 20, 2008 #4 Share Posted February 20, 2008 A South Korean company says it has taken its first order for the cloning of a pet dog. A woman from the United States wants her dead pitbull terrier - called Booger - re-created. The world's most expensive Booger. It won't be the same dog. But it will be more intimately related than, for example, another dog from Booger's original litter. I don't know what to make of this. Obviously, the woman is doing this out of love, so her motives could be worse. But she's going to have a bad relationship with her new dog if she thinks it is the old dog reincarnated.
