Gotta disagree with you there man.
That is exactly what cryogenics is all about. Originally desinged (or imagined) for those with chronic diseases that could not be cured with existing medical technology. Conceptually speaking, 'cryo' is all about freezing these people (or dogs) until such time as they could safely be revived and cured of (cancer, AIDS, etc..) whatever.
Sure, technically speaking there is a thin line between "killing people" and placing them in suspended animataion, but that's jsut splitting hairs.
That said, this process with dogs is a long way from from the SciFi version of stasis. Worth a closer look sure, but don't go buying an extra freezer just yet.
