On October 4, 1957, the Russians launched the Sputnik, the world's first satellite - the first man-made object to orbit the earth.īoth countries used animals to learn how living creatures and man may survive in the outer space. There were fears about nuclear arms, espionage, the war in Korea and expansions in media. In the mid-twentieth century, the United States and Soviet Union were engaged in a race to space as part of the on-going Cold War. The dogs chosen for space were cooperative with the scientists and manageable in their tests with them. The ears will be neither raised or lowered.
The dog will look to the side, their mouth closed. A tail held high can be a sign the dog is aroused by anxiety.Ĭonversely, a dog that is calm will look physically relaxed. The dog will show a fearful body position, cowering and backing away from fearful stimuli. The difference is that the dog will show the fear by becoming aggressive. Humans are inclined to be explosive when they are feeling anxious. The dog may show avoidance behaviors, run away, hide or sleep excessively when under stress. A stressed dog will have a decrease in appetite. Blood may appear in the dog's stool or vomit. There may be diarrhea, constipation, and vomiting. The dog may develop issues with digestion.
Other signs of fearfulness in dogs range from behavior to body functions, similar to how human bodies react to anxiety-provoking situations. Many dogs become difficult to manage and will bite from fear. The dog would appear fearful, shaking, with a tucked tail and dropped ears. The stressed behaviors that the scientists wanted to avoid would have been noted in signs of fear and aggression. Some animals were sent to space with food, so digestion may have also been studied. They took measures of the dog's vital signs, such as temperature, breathing, and blood pressure. The first sign the scientists would look for was whether or not the dog was able to stay alive in space. Space dogs are restricted in their movements. They were said to have selected "placid, long-suffering" animals for the space experiments.
The scientists believed that a stray had stronger survival instincts and would be more resilient to the stress of space travel than a dog that had been reared in a home environment. The dogs chosen for space travel were stray dogs. The dog had to tolerate wearing equipment to monitor body functions. The space dog needed to be an animal that was not easily frightened, trainable, and who had an agreeable disposition. Dogs that were aggressive or fearful were not appropriate for space travel. They also needed to be animals who were calm. The dogs that were selected to go into space needed to be small, so they could fit into the spacecraft and not take up much space.
