I think you're right Chris.

Of much less relevance (than moral considerations), the same conformation flaws that make Charlie "pet quality", not good breeding stock, would also make cloning him unethical. I would think that the standards as to which dogs should or should not be cloned, would be the same as which dogs should or should not be bred. Cloning would open up a whole new can of worms.

You have a very good point. The people doing the cloning aren't even considering that train of thought.
IMO, Just because you CAN do something doesn't mean you should.
Like Chris, I'm not in favor of cloneing pets.
