Yes, the first dog sent to space, Laika, did not survive the mission. She was launched into space by the Soviet Union in 1957 and unfortunately died a few hours after the launch due to overheating and stress.

That living beings could be launched into orbit and survive both the launch and the orbit.

Most likely at about T + 2 seconds of Laika's launch sequence, although there were no aroma monitors aboard her craft.
Sputnik 2 was the first time humans sent a living being into space, a dog named Laika.

They launched a dog. Her name was "Laika" but she wasnot of the race laika but a stray, originally named Kudryavka, she became the first animal to orbit the Earth and the first orbital death. Little was known about the impact of spaceflight on living things at the time Laika's mission was launched. Some scientists believed humans would be unable to survive the launch or the conditions of outer space, so engineers viewed flights by non-human animals as a necessary precursor to human missions.

Kinda-sorta. From a human standpoint, the launch was successful, and she survived in orbit for a while, proving that humans could build things allowing living creatures to survive in orbit. But from Laika's perspective she experiences nasty, scary things before dying, probably quite painfully.
