Canine Arthritis Market Analysis
The prevalence of obesity among the pet population is increasing all over the globe. Owing to the fact that excess fat and body weight increases the load on joints, obesity is directly associated with osteoarthritis in dogs, which results in difficulty of movement. According to the results of the 2017 Pet Obesity Survey conducted by the Association for Pet Obesity Prevention (APOP), 56% of dogs were identified as overweight (body condition score (BCS) 6-7) or obese (BCS 8-9), while in 2016, APOP classified 54% of dogs as overweight or obese, in the United States. The American Animal Hospital Association (AAHA) estimated 40-50% of dogs to be overweight, and 25% of dogs to be obese, in 2017. According to data published in a journal, namely, Frontiers in Veterinary Science, in 2017, 40.9% of dogs have been identified to be obese (BCS 7/9-9/9) in the obesogenic areas in Spain.
Thus, the rise in the prevalence of canine obesity has made it the most common nutritional health problem in dogs, which results in osteoarthritis, hence driving the growth of the market studied.
