Would you clone your beloved pet for $50,000?

I’d say hard pass on the cloning for most of the same reasons above. However, I’m strongly considering cryonics for my sweet senior Havanese, Watson.

I can’t lie, I would totally want my old girl back. I still miss her sassy ass everyday. Even though I have the SWEETEST girl on the planet right now, sigh, I miss my Daisy. She was like a mother or a big sister to me. Due to her breed, I know the same sort of dog would come about. Protective and so incredibly smart. Yep, I would do it. Plus, she would boss around my goofy golden retriever and believe me, someone needs to!

I would not because there is no guarantee that the cloned pet’s personality would be the same as the beloved pet’s personality. Also, if the beloved pet had a horrendous disease, I would not want to risk the cloned pet having the same disease.

I wouldn't even though the thought of feeling the silky fur of my beloved fur babies once again seems like heaven. The reason is I am getting older and I don't have that previous type of life to offer anymore. I would feel guilty that the new dog was not growing up with the kids since they are grown, and sharing the life of his/her original. I know that sounds strange but I would be comparing. It's just how I am.

We still have dogs and we give them a great life. And of course there are so many dogs that need to be adopted. We just adopted an 8 year old dog and already she is well loved. Her family of 8 years dumped her in a high kill rate shelter and she was rescued by a wonderful canine rescue group. Once she got settled and the excitement wore off she would go off by herself and sit quietly. I believe she was grieving. She doesn't seem to be doing that recently. We love our dogs so much.

Heartwarming and wonderful and thank you for saving this 8 year old's life and for making her a part of your family. So glad she isn't grieving anymore for her previous family who abandoned her and left her to die

Sending your newest family member big hugs and so glad you guys are giving her a warm loving family.

I thought about it and then I watched a 60 mins article on it and saw how they treated the female dogs as money making incubators in labs in Asian countries and got over it.

I realised as much as I'd like to, I can't get my much loved pet back again and I don't see the need to put other animals through that sort of situation trying.

I should say that being I have a purebreed greyhound, its easy enough finding one that looks just like her. It would be pretty impossible to replicate her personality though.
