GoKawiilPalmer Luckey and Ben Lamm Launch $200M Startup to Clone Military Working Dogs
Warhound, a new Texas-based company founded by Anduril's Palmer Luckey and Colossal Biosciences' Ben Lamm, has raised $200 million to breed genetically engineered working dogs for the U.S. military, police and first responders. The company says it has collected blood samples from top-performing Belgian Malinois, labs and shepherds with plans to clone them, aiming for the first litter of puppies by early 2027. Initial gene-editing will target eliminating conditions like hip dysplasia, with Lamm suggesting future work could add wolf olfactory genes.
