In a sense, Yes. The bible does say that man was charged with caring for the earth and all its animals. (Psalm 8:6-8; 115:16) Then, too, how humans carry out their responsibility toward animals is also important. God’s Word says: “The righteous one takes care of his domestic animal.” (Proverbs 12:10) This definitely would include our pet dogs.
