Owner
In the BDSM world, the term "owner" refers to a person who has taken full responsibility for another person. A person who identifies as an enslaved person or a pet may belong to an owner.
Slaves and pets typically engage in a relationship with an owner voluntarily and are free to leave at any time, despite the implications of these terms.
More About Owner
The behavior, attire, and penalties of an enslaved person or pet are all under the master's control. Before they engage in any action together, these will usually be outlined in a contract between the enslaved person or pet and its enslaver. An owner might, for instance, insist that a "pet pony" constantly wear a bridle and hoof boots. For example, an enslaved woman's owner can dictate that she never wears panties or that she always dresses in short skirts.
When an enslaved person or pet misbehaves, owners are in charge of disciplining them. On the other hand, owners are also responsible for rewarding good conduct by lavishing pets or enslaved people with attention. A component of training may involve rewards and punishments, which owners are also in charge of implementing in day-to-day operations.
As a sign of their bond, an owner may give an enslaved person or pet a collar to wear. To represent their new life under the owner's authority, a pet or slave may also adopt the owner's name
