Summary
ViaGen Pets & Equine has positioned itself as the leader in pet cloning services in the U.S., particularly for dogs and horses. Their process begins with tissue biopsy and DNA cryopreservation, which can be done while the pet is alive or shortly after passing. Clients can choose to preserve DNA now and clone later, or move directly into cloning, where ViaGen creates an embryo using SCNT and implants it into a surrogate mother.
While the cloned dog is genetically identical, the company is careful to clarify that personality traits may differ due to environmental influences. Nevertheless, many customers report strong resemblances, not only physically but emotionally, in their new pets. The cloning process can take several months and requires a substantial financial investment (upward of $50,000), but ViaGen’s comprehensive support and scientific rigor make them the most trusted option for those seeking to recreate their bond with a beloved pet.
