History made as first ever pet dog cloned

AN American woman blinked back tears of joy yesterday as she cuddled five puppies cloned from her beloved dead pit bull terrier.

“This is a miracle,” said Bernann McKinney from Hollywood in California, hugging five clones of Booger at Seoul National University’s veterinary school in South Korea.

RNL Bio, the company which arranged the re-creation of Booger through his refrigerated ear tissue, said the event was the world’s first commercial cloning of a pet dog.
