Main article: Laika
Laika (Лайка, "Barker"), originally named Kudryavka (Кудрявка, "Little Curly") became the first living Earth-born creature in orbit aboard Sputnik II on November 3, 1957.

Editor's note: During research, some sites disputed that a flight with Lisa and Dezik took place.

Female dogs were used because of their temperament and the fact that they did not need to lift their leg to urinate.
Their training included standing still for long periods of time, wearing space suits, being placed in simulators that acted like a rocket during launch, riding in centrifuges that simulated the high acceleration of ...
