Summary/Abstract: In the first part of the text, attention was briefly drawn to the phenomenon of dogs as pets on the one hand, and stray dogs on the other. In addition, certain examples of the strong relationship between the man and the dog are given, both through history and in the era of postculture. The bioethical problem of the relationship between people and stray dogs in Bosnia and Herzegovina is especially explored, at the same time emphasizing the ethical and moral (ir)responsibility of former dog owners. While reflecting on the aforementioned content, apart from the bioethical perspective, this topic was also considered from the perspective of the Muslim Tradition, i.e. the theology of moral Therefore, the concept of dog was viewed dominantly from a Muslim theological-moral perspective, but in the dialogue with bioethics, i.e. through the prism of integrative bioethics.
