Some of the candidates are fictional and some are no longer living. There are 15 dogs being considered.The tribute is not the first to honour dogs. The Hollywood Walk of Fame includes three dogs, Lassie, Rin Tin Tin, and Strongheart. Laika, a dog sent into orbit by the Soviet Union, is commemorated by a plaque at a Moscow research center as well as depicted in a monument dedicated to fallen cosmonauts at Star City.
