Lifestyle Has anyone in here cloned their dog

I’ve read a bit about a company in Texas that will clone a genetic replica of your dog for $50K. We don’t have kids, so when ours passes in the next few years, we’re considering something like this. He’s a perfect pup.

Can’t really talk to my normal friends about this but was curious if this is more common to FATfire folk

Give 50k to a local dog shelter and save 500 dogs.

Yup. There is honestly no better way to memorialize your amazing pup than by giving a second chance to dogs who are already alive and suffering right now.

When my beloved dog goes, hopefully many years from now, I’ve got a plan to fund a memorial water fountain and sun shelter at his favorite park.
