How to Clone a Family Dog: Win a BioArts Auction
What? BioArts to Hold Pet Dog Clone Auction
The information from BioArts about who will be hosting these pet clone BioArts auctions does not seem to be released yet, but I highly suspect that it will not be eBay. For years, eBay has held to their morals about not allowing dogs and pets to be sold on their auction site. Or, maybe they will allow this BioArts pet dog clone auction idea?
I am looking at eBay sales rules; eBay has banned the sale of live pets on their auction site, with a few exceptions made on the banned pet auction rule for select fish, stuffed animals and skins. eBay also does not allow any product with dog or cat fur on it to be sold, but BioArts is not offering to sell fur on a product on eBay, just the services on how to get a brand new product with fur after leaving that auction Web site.

Like many Americans, I am totally against the BioArts pet dog clone auction idea. Wait, don't get me wrong. I am still grieving over more than one of my pets who has died. For many of us the grieving process for our lost friends just never goes away. But, I am also still grieving over missing people too. BioArts may claim that they just want to pet clone the family dog today, but what happens with the BioArts dog clone auction idea tomorrow?
Each year there are over 3 million dogs euthanized in animal shelters, with each one of these little doggie brains wanting desperately to live through the love of a new owner. If BioArts pet dog clone auctions are allowed to happen without outcry, we are paving the road towards future troubles. As can be seen in the eBay rules, our society is not equipped with any laws to direct proper conduct while BioArts offers to clone family pets.
In past news articles about cloning animals, I remember a concern that struck me as horrible at the time about what happens to the clone pet dogs that come out with flaws. BioArts must be aware that the idea to clone a family dog is a new science and that with all new science practices mistakes can happen. Is BioArts ready to tell the public what happens with the cloned dog mistakes from their clone pet auctions? Probably not.
On the other hand, I do see a possible need for cloning technology to be advanced. With global warming coupled with man's activities many species of the animal kingdom are disappearing completely. This is not a small issue like the BioArts pet dog clone auction for an owner's personal enjoyment; we need to perhaps save whole species from extinction.
If BioArts were offering to clone the last dog on the planet, I might totally enjoy the idea of writing about BioArts pet dog clone auction; what's not to like about a little rib bone being shared for the purpose of saving something that would otherwise be totally lost? It would allow that failing species a second chance at populating the earth in numbers that might prevent complete extinction.
The BioArts pet dog clone auction idea for a replacement version of the family dog is simply wrong. BioArts is not yet explaining to people that pet dog clones would have a personality based upon the new life experiences, and not the old. People who are interested in bidding large money for a clone of a lost loved one should remember that your loved one is not going to be living inside of the new pet dog clone shell. You will only get one new member of his species to enjoy, and lots of those are already down at the pound.
BioArts - Shame on you for considering this BioArts clone pet dog auction method of selling hope to people who simply want their old pets back. God was quick to point out that these rib experiments only produce beings, and that those beings are allowed to become anything that they choose to be.

Post a CommentI actually think this cloning is good, it advances toward new technology. However, I can see the point of overpopulation as well.
But what if you have the world's most perfect dog? I have a nine year old Alaskan Malamute, possibly crossed with Border Collie (she's pretty smart and does many Border Collie type things), although you don't see it in her. She is smaller than a typical malamute, and has very, very soft fur, and blue eyes, and is so gentle and calm and doesn't need to be tied and rarely ever barks (though she does howl a very mournful howl when we go out), and she is so sweet and loving - I'd never clone any of our other dogs, but our Shadow I'd clone in a heartbeat if I had the money. Why is that so bad? She's a shelter dog herself, all the dogs we've ever had were, would it really hurt for us to have another dog just like her when she's gone? When she goes, she's going to take a piece of my heart with her - a big one, as she is always with me. I definitely understand why people clone their dogs.
