Sažetak
Within anthropological studies of the human-animal relation much has been written about the objectification of animals in “Euro-American” ontology and the need to reconsider this approach. Yet, although “Euro-American” ontologies on the human-animal relation have been the focus of critique, I suggest that the question of how we might reconsider this issue is still pertinent. In this article, I offer an ethnographic account of dog owner narratives on the dog-owner relation in Croatia. Through a consideration of these narratives in terms of the “flow of knowledge” (cf. Strathern 2004), I propose that knowledge between humans and animals is already flowing but it has just not been made visible as such.
