Many of the clones that were cloned died VERY early than the original. Many of them also developed very rare diseases too.

FYI there are 13 living Dollys all cloned at the same time.Really is sad when people say things that they know nothing about. If  your opinion is based on facts good but if its only an opinion please state it. There are many people out there that want to know about cloning.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Gregg Veneklasen DVM]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 20th 2008 4:31PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Want to Clone Your Dog?

I have a pit bull/mastive and I have had him sence he was 4 weeks,I have trainded him and he is a very good dog,He is a part of the family like one of the kids,,the heart break that we would go threw when he passes will kills us! Why would I go threw the pain again! A cloned dog is not the same as your pet I am sorry but there not they may look like him and act like him,,maybe! But you know in your heart you just lost your family pet..there is no way its the same. If you really love your pet your family member you would remember him or her by memery not a clone! What the hell Is the world comming to,,,]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Monica]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 20th 2008 8:36AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Want to Clone Your Dog?

There are sooooo many animals that are killed in shelters every day.  The feral population is out of control.  And people would rather clone an animal and create more problems, than adopt a pet that already exists.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[w]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 20th 2008 8:55AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Want to Clone Your Dog?

Instead of paying that ridiculus amount to clone their dog, they should donate that money to a good cause,the ASPCA would be a great choice to honor their beloved pet, and then they can adopt a dog that needs a good home and not "create" one. It makes me sick when wealthy people waste so much money on stupid stuff!! ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Susan]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 20th 2008 9:04AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Want to Clone Your Dog?

Yes, maybe they can clone the body. But the soul/spirit? I think not. This is just wrong in my book. Like everyone else has said, visit a shelter. I was out at the shelter last week and have never seen such a large amount of puppies for adoption. If you have that much $ to bid, wouldn't your loving companion at it's deepest level appreciate that you took that money and rescued some dogs and perhaps made a large donation to a shelter. <br>Carolyn]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Carolyn]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 20th 2008 9:08AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Want to Clone Your Dog?

She was a part of the family for 15 years and still holds a place in my heart.  The dog I have now also came from the Humane Society.  She is not "just like" my first dog but she is still part of the family and I wouldn't sell her for a million dollars.  There are too many wonderful dogs in shelters waiting to be adopted and because of the greed and selfishness of people, many more will end up there, or somewhere even worse.  I find it absurd for someone to think about having their dog cloned. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Shelter mom]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 20th 2008 9:29AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Want to Clone Your Dog?
