Dog Cloning
Re “Couple Pay $2.3 Million for School to Clone Dog,†Aug. 26: This couple may think they love their dog, but they are extremely selfish individuals. When I think what our city animal shelters could do with that $2.3 million, it saddens me to think of how they are selfishly misspending their money. How many homeless animals are malnourished because they wander the streets? How many are put to death because there is no money available to care for them ?
My 9-year-old sheltie mix is slowly going blind, and the vet says there is nothing that can be done. If this anonymous couple really loved their dog, they would take their money and donate it to organizations that are trying to cure the diseases of our animal companions. The $2.3 million could help stop many dogs from suffering needlessly.
This is a very sad story for humans and animals. These people are not advancing science. They are just being selfish.
