Name one missile that does so and the mechanism it uses for braking.

Sputnik, returned dogs safely in the 50's. They used
speed brakes, then parachutes.

No it didnt, Sputnik was not recoverable and the dog Laika died in
space
And the other 24 dog missions ?
Please aquaint and get back to us.

Dunno, but the first Soviet canine passengers successfully returned from
orbit weren't in the 1950s.

The discussion involves sub-orbital, (IRBM's or MRBM's),
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soviet_space_dogs
to prove sub-orbital re-entry capability, see it in 1951.
(Keith went off track with Laika).

Actually the person who raised the issue of dogs in Sputnik
was you. Laika was the ONLY dog to fly in a sputnik
in the 1950's.

I'm sorry Keith, the ref disagrees with you.
But I'll agree node my head.
Good Bye.
