i'm confused. yes, the puppy has the original dog's dna - but that doesn't mean he'll have the same temperment or memories and actually BE the same dog, does it?

Not the same memories but I don't see why the temperament wouldn't be the same.

Depends on how much temperament is influenced by "nature" and how much by "nurture."

I can think of a lot more important things to spend that much money on.

I remember these people! They called Suze Orman on her "Can I Afford It?" segment to ask if they could afford to clone the dog. Their financial situation was solid enough for Suze to give her blessing... I guess they didn't waste any time after getting the green light from her. I don't understand it, but far be it from me to judge others and how they want to spend their $$$.
