The National Archives UK said:
On top of the despatch Macmillan has written: "I think Sir C Steel might point out to the Germans that Gagarin's reception was nothing like that which the little dog would have got. HM 18/3." This is a reference to the Soviet Union's use of dogs as astronauts, most famously Laika in 1957.
