This week's question: Miracle Milly, a tiny Chihuahua from Florida, has been awarded the title of World's Most Cloned Dog by Guinness World Records, after scientists in South Korea created 49 genetically-identical copies of her. If Disney were to make an animated movie about this unusual dog and its clones, what title could it give the film?
