According to a newly published study by Fact.MR, the global dog joint supplements market is poised to reach USD 2.0 billion by 2035, expanding from USD 1.1 billion in 2025. The market is forecast to record a CAGR of 6.2% between 2025 and 2035, driven by increasing pet humanization, proactive health awareness, and the growing emphasis on preventive veterinary care.

Market Overview

The market is expected to grow 1.82× during the assessment period as pet owners prioritize mobility, comfort, and long-term wellness for their canine companions.
