I have done a bunch of AI work and embryo transfer on cattle, when I worked for a purebred cattle operation and have done AI work, with shipped semen, on horses.

I also have had a vet do AI on a dog before but I don't ever recall hearing of embryo transfer being done on a dog.....I think trying to find a receipient female dog would be the biggest drawback, as they have to be exactly in the same stage in their cycle (in cattle its 7 days past breeding) for them to accept the embryo's.

As far as cloning, for horses its running about $150,000 per attempt and they are running about a 60% success rate...would be a REAL expensive hog dog, one I would be afraid to turn loose!!
