Do the pets have living masters, or are they "unowned" pets?

This is probably an old bug:
# 000833 □ [dwarf mode][jobs][burial] (http://www.bay12games.com/forum/index.php?topic=7579.0 [^]) the bodies of tame animals that weren't pets can't be buried or butchered, including work dogs

But uploading a save to http://dffd.wimbli.com/ [^] might still be helpful.
