Clone Little Coconut - Please Help Bring LC Back

Donation protected
My name is Ky and for the past 13 years LC has been the love of my life. She wasn’t just any dog, she was an absolute legend and considered by many to be the best dog in the world.

The bond between LC and I was stronger than words can convey. Her lively spirit brought a sparkle to the world and her heart was filled with an immense love for life, people, and adventure. LC was more than a companion, she was my best friend.

On the morning of June 15 LC, after a long struggle with Cushing’s and Lyme Disease, Little Coconut died peacefully in my arms. The pain of this loss is immense, and I cannot begin to describe the hole left in my heart now that she is gone. We are fortunate to live in a time when scientific advancement offers us a glimmer of hope - the possibility to clone an exact genetic replica of our beloved LC. 

I've entrusted ViaGen Laboratory in Texas with her DNA, to be safeguarded until we can gather the necessary resources to bring LC's vibrancy back to life. They’re charging $45,000 to clone her of which I hope to raise $40,000 on GoFundMe from her friends, fans, and followers. For the other $5,000 I’ll be auctioning off some of my best pieces of sea glass on Facebook. If you’d like to have your pet cloned, contact ViaGen and give them my name to help me receive a discount.

LC was one of a kind - at a mere 10 pounds, she was a force to be reckoned with. She traversed marathons, climbed snowy mountains and fiery volcanoes, and embarked on voyages spanning thousands of miles, visiting more countries than most humans dare to dream. Through her videos, LC stole the hearts of millions worldwide and became an icon, a true legend.

Bringing back LC won't erase the loss, but it will enable us to continue her legacy and, in a way, keep her spirit alive. Whether you've been touched by LC's spirited personality in person, or you've been one of the millions warmed by her antics on YouTube’s “The Bored Pirate” and Facebook’s “LC’s Glass”, your contribution to her rebirth would mean the world to me.

Supporting this effort can take many forms, from sharing this message with others to contributing financially. Any form of help is deeply appreciated and goes towards keeping LC's love and legacy alive. Thank you for being a part of LC's journey and for considering this act of love. In loving memory of LC, let's bring her magic back to the world. To see endless videos and pictures of LC please visit her Facebook Sea Glass Page “LC’s Glass” at Facebook.com/SunsOutTonguesOut or visit her Treasure Hunting YouTube Channel “The Bored Pirate” at YouTube.com/TheBoredPirate

I know this seems like a lot of money, but some people spend this amount on shoes, a dress, or a watch. I just want my puppy back. Thank you all so muchKy
