Thanks for the clarification. I had assumed they used public funding for this.

Thinking about it, a better payoff would have been if they had 'been run over' going to pick up the puppy. A small difference but an important one. Comedically speaking of course.

Look at it this way and your perspectives will change. He spent $150k to shut his wife up from carrying on like a lunatic about the dog and to get her out of his hair. You know she was talking that poor bastards ear off to a point where 150k would make any sane man say YES just send me the fricking check!

$$$$$ well spent

In today's society that money could have only spent on two things that are worthwhile. Statue removal, street name change.

He probably could have had her killed for about five grand.

I would consider this, but I like the uniqueness of my dogs, so I probably wouldn't. But I get why someone might want to do this.

Or if the dog bites one of the neighbors and they're forced to put him down.

Would have been better spent on granny's face lift and a new set of tits.

I remember watching that show filmed in Louisiana called "Country Bucks." It only aired liked 6 episodes but the dude had a cloned blue tick named "George Cloney." He said it looked exactly like his old one but was half retarded.

I believe this is one of the fallacies of cloning. It will not be the same dog. I have identical twin girls, that were made from a single sperm and a single egg cell that then split. As I understand it their DNA is the same. Yet they are not the same. Their personalities, humor, intelligence, and appearance, are all different. The new dog would not be raised in the exact same circumstances shaping it to be the exact same puppy. It would be unique.

Then again, I could be wrong.

I am actually planning on doing this with my current dog. I just hope the price gets cheaper as the years go by.

Just cut off a paw, rub a little cloning gel and make sure it gets a lot of light.

If those bastards at the shelter wouldn't have cut off his balls, I wouldn't even think about it. Too good of a dog not to breed, unfortunately.
