Deep Copy of the Dictionary object using Extension Method C#

In my previous post, i explained how to make a deep copy of the list object using Extension Method in C#. I am using same logic here to create clone of the dictionary object using Extension  method.

Create the clone method as below,

	/// <summary>
	/// Cloner Helper Class
	/// </summary>
	public static class CloneHelper
	{
	/// <summary>
	/// Perform a deep Copy of the dictionary object, using Extension method.
	/// </summary>
	/// <typeparam name="TKey"></typeparam>
	/// <typeparam name="TValue"></typeparam>
	/// <param name="original"></param>
	/// <returns>deep Copy of the dictionary object,</returns>
	public static IDictionary<TKey, TValue> CloneDictionary<TKey, TValue>
	(this Dictionary<TKey, TValue> original) where TValue : ICloneable
	{
	Dictionary<TKey, TValue> ret = new Dictionary<TKey, TValue>(original.Count,
	original.Comparer);
	foreach (KeyValuePair<TKey, TValue> entry in original)
	{
	ret.Add(entry.Key, (TValue)entry.Value.Clone());
	}
	return ret;
	}
	}

Call CloneDictionary method to create Deep copy of the dictionary object using Extension Method,
Rules to define and call the extension method - Reference MSDN

1) Define a static class to contain the extension method.
2) Implement the extension method as a static method with at least the same visibility as the containing class.
3) The first parameter of the method specifies the type that the method operates on; it must be preceded with the this modifier.
4) In the calling code, add a using directive to specify the namespace that contains the extension method class.
5) call the methods as if they were instance methods in the type.

Calling a method as below,

Dictionary Dict1 = new Dictionary();  // Empty Dictionary
Dictionary Dict2 = new Dictionary()
 {
{ 1, Chintan}, { 2, Rakesh}
 }
            
 Dict1= Dict2.CloneDictionary(); // Created deep copy of Dict1
