Nubby's Story



Original Nubby

Nubby 2.0 & Lowry Hunt (owner)
In 2019, pet owner Lowry Hunt lost his Australian Shepherd, Nubby, in a fatal trailer accident on his ranch. Nubby had been Lowry’s loyal companion for nine years his family and the sudden loss was devastating. However, before Nubby’s passing, Lowry had already considered the idea of genetic preservation and cloning to continue their bond. In 2020 this idea came to life when Nubby 2.0 was born as a genetically identical twin of the original Nubby, thanks to the incredible advancements in animal cloning. Now, Nubby 2.0 happily thrives just as the first Nubby did loved and cherished, enjoying life on the ranch with his trusted owner. Nubby’s story is about more than just loss and restoration; it is about pursuing great lengths for those we love. The remarkable success of cloning Nubby inspired Lowry Hunt to create Hunt Legacy Labs, LLC a biotechnology company dedicated to making DNA collection and preservation easily accessible for all pet owners, allowing them to continue the legacy of their beloved pets.
