A South Korean firm is offering to clone pet dogs in co-operation with the scientists who created the world's first cloned canine.
Seoul-based RNL Bio said it is already working on its first order from an American woman who wants a clone of her dead pitbull. She was especially attached to it because it saved her life when another dog attacked her and bit off her arm.
The client, Bernann McKunney of California, provided the firm with ear tissue from the dead dog, which she had taken and preserved at a US biotech firm before the dog died a year and a half ago, said company spokesperson Kim Yoon.
The chances of successfully creating a clone are about 25%, Kim said. The firm is charging $150 000 for the clones, which clients pay only after they receive a new pet. link
