意思
The state of owning a pet dog.
文化背景
In Zagreb, having a dog is a social ticket. People often meet in 'dog parks' or at 'nasip' (the Sava river embankment). It is very common to see dogs in cafes. Traditionally, dogs were for hunting or guarding. While this has changed, you might still see more working breeds in the hinterland (Zagora). Dogs are often kept in yards ('dvorište') rather than inside the house. The phrase 'imati psa' here might imply a guard dog for the property. There is a massive trend of 'udomljavanje' (adopting). Saying 'Imam psa iz azila' (I have a dog from a shelter) carries significant social prestige.
The Animate Rule
Always remember that for living things (men and animals), the object ending is '-a'.
Don't say 'Imam pas'
This is the most common beginner mistake. It sounds like 'I have dog' without the proper grammar.

Use Diminutives
If you want to sound like a local in Zagreb, say 'Imam peseka'. It's much more friendly.
Dog in the Cafe
If you see a dog in a cafe, it's polite to ask 'Smijem li ga pomaziti?' (May I pet him?) after saying you also have a dog.
