Default Laika, the first space dog

Is it true that Laika was picked up as a stray on the streets of
Moscow?

No.


I think I read in Starman that one the dogs sent up into space by the
USSR was a stray cos it learned the stuff better then a so called
cleverly bred one.

Dunno what it had to do, press buttons with it's nose for food?

Might not have been Starman, I read so many of these Soviet space
books!! Memory overload!
