    Apparently initially I was supposed to be returned safely to earth, the engineers didn't realize my paws couldn't reach the control panel

    They definitely didn't strap dogs to rockets and left them for dead

    Korolev's claim that I am a lotiumaniac is greatly exaggerated, I only pissed in the control panels once, hence me being sent to space

    A little known fact about me is that I enjoyed ballroom dancing and walking in the rain, but then they strapped me to a rocket

    Its often quite glamorous to be a Russian dog in the 50's and then they strap you onto a rocket and leave you for dead in space

    People often ask me why I volunteered for a suicide mission into space, I didn't, Sergei Korolev lured me into the capsule with treats
