dog owner
A person who owns one or more dogs and is responsible for them.
Jeder Hundebesitzer ist verpflichtet, die Hinterlassenschaften seines Tieres zu entfernen.
Every dog owner is required to remove their animal's waste.
The word is made up of 'Hund' (dog) and 'Besitzer' (owner). The 'e' in between is a linking element that connects the two words.
Der Hundebesitzer geht jeden Morgen mit seinem Hund im Park spazieren.
The dog owner walks his dog in the park every morning.
The part 'Besitzer' (owner) comes from the verb 'besitzen' (to own). So a 'Besitzer' is a person who owns something.
Wer besitzt dieses Auto?
Who owns this car?
This pattern works for many kinds of animals. You can simply replace 'Hund' (dog) with another animal to name the owner, for example 'Katzenbesitzer' (cat owner) or 'Pferdebesitzer' (horse owner).
Die neue Katzenbesitzerin hat viele Fragen zur richtigen Pflege.
The new cat owner has many questions about proper care.

'Frauchen' and 'Hundebesitzer' can both refer to a person who owns a dog. 'Frauchen' is affectionate and specifically means a female person. It sounds personal and fits well when talking about the dog and its female owner. 'Hundebesitzer' is more neutral and more general. It can fit in many situations, including when gender is not important or when you are speaking more factually. In short: 'Frauchen' sounds close and colloquial, while 'Hundebesitzer' sounds neutral and general.
