 San Francisco, 27 Sep 2022: The Report Companion Animal Arthritis Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report By Animal Type (Dogs, Cats), By Indication, By Treatment, By Distribution Channel, By Region, And Segment Forecasts, 2022 - 2030

The global companion animal arthritis market size is expected to reach USD 5.18 billion by 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The market is expected to expand at a CAGR of 6.8% from 2022 to 2030. The key drivers for the market are the increasing prevalence of osteoarthritis in companion animals due to their longer life duration and the vulnerability of older pets to get degenerative joint diseases owing to their cartilage weakness. As per a study published in 2019 in the International Journal of Science, Environment, and Technology, the incidence of osteoarthritis was found to be more common among the 5-10 years old dog population. The study also reported that male dogs are more prone to arthritis compared to female dogs.

The COVID-19 pandemic created barriers and challenges in the global companion animal health industry that include decreased marketing and sales activities, low veterinary clinic admission, cancellation of routine pet check-ups, and a low number of arthritis surgery performed in veterinary hospitals. However, the governments and veterinary organizations of various countries implemented strategies and safety measures to resume veterinary practices during the pandemic. According to the American Veterinary Medical Association, telemedicine services were widely incorporated in veterinary clinics and hospitals to curb the impact of lockdowns.

The increasing pet care expenditure in both developing and developed economies is a significant opportunity considered for market growth. According to the American Kennel Club (AKC), pet owners in the U.S. were seen to spend more money on their pet’s wellness and related healthcare products. The American Pet Products Association reported that the overall pet industry sale exceeded USD 100 billion by the end of 2020. The AKC also stated that online veterinary product shopping increased by 86% after the emergence of the pandemic. The trend of owning popular breeds of dogs also enhanced the required routine veterinary care services among them. These factors are expected to boost the growth of the market.
