For Working Animal Owners

A working animal is an animal, usually domesticated, that is kept by humans and trained to perform tasks. They may be pets or draft animals trained to achieve certain tasks, such as detection dogs, rescue dogs, sled dogs, guide dogs, companion animals, equine physiotherapists, racehorses, etc. They stand out through layers of selection and cultivation. For those very talented helpers, it is a good idea to preserve their excellent genes through cloning.

Rescue Dogs and Sniffer Dogs Cloning

Take rescue dogs as an example. They are one of the most respected and praised dog positions. After professional training, the rescue dog becomes an expert in searching and saving one person after another in emergencies such as earthquakes, fires, snow disasters, storms, and explosions,etc. According to some professional trainers, “Some guide dogs, detection dogs, and rescue dogs are relatively valuable, especially rescue dogs have a low probability of being trained, and have some genetic characteristics, which are almost one in a hundred. Cloning these excellent rescue dogs will reduce the cost of breedingand training them."

A detection dog or sniffer dog is trained to use its senses to detect substances such as explosives, illegal drugs, wildlife scat, currency, and blood. Sniffer dogs work for people with the characteristics of quickly, efficiently, and accurately detecting things, and have an extremely sensitive sense of smell. Not only they can pick up the odors of more than 2 million substances, but can also identify one of them from dozens of mixed odors. As early as 2009, South Korea Customs has deployed the world's first batch of cloned drug sniffer dogs to monitor drugs at the country's main airport and border. The six dogs were cloned from a Canadian-born sniffer dog in 2007. After 16 months of professional training, they were officially employed. Since it is so difficult to find a good sniffer dog, cloning a sniffer dog greatly reduces the cost of fighting crime. Among sniffer dogs, only about 30% can meet the standard, but the pass rate of cloned sniffer dogs may reach 90%. According to a spokesperson for the South Korean Customs, these cloned dogs perform much better than their naturally-born counterparts in drug detection work.

Racehorse Cloning

In the horse world, cloning technology has the potential to change all equestrian sports and the way horses are raised. This unusual technique has been adopted mainly by the sport of polo, in which it has gained worldwide recognition as an acceptable practice. Alan Meeker is committed to researching the breeding of polo horses. He collaborated with Cambiaso, the greatest polo player of all time, to pursue polo pony cloning using Cambiaso's best horses. Meeker obtain all patents related to animal somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT), which was famously used to clone Dolly the sheep. After unremitting attempts and hard work, Meeker finally succeeded and enjoyed a great reputation in the field of racehorse cloning. 

Cloning technology has changed the way we look at the uniqueness of life and genetics. In the future, scientists can use cloning technology to provide a large number of special animals that serve humans and apply them to the preservation of the genes of animals with excellent bloodlines. " I will be you when I grow up, become the best friend and helper of mankind." BioVenic strives to contribute to the rapid breeding and gene preservation of excellent working animals, and provides you the best dog cloning and cat cloning services.
