A New Yorker Danielle Tarantola's beloved mutt trouble passed away at 18 years old, and she just couldn't go on without him. Tarantola paid 50,000 to a company in South Korea to get a clone of Trouble. She is now a proud owner of exact genetic replica of the original Trouble. The clones name is Double Trouble. Daniella got laid off three years ago when she worked for Wall Street. Tarantola had got a major discount on the procedure which normally cost $100,000 after she had appeared on a TLC special about pet cloning. "New" Trouble was born a couple months ago in Korea Daniella watched the cloning on a webcam. She says she can barley tell the difference between the two Troubles. Daniella loved her Lhasa Apso mixed so much she had a mural painted in her home. The orginal Trouble passed away in 2008 at the age of 18. The procedure for dogs is curently only avaible in South Korea. The firrst pet cloning was of Dolly the sheep in 1996.
