Dog Food Market Size & Trends | Mordor Intelligence

The global Dog Food Market Size is projected to increase from USD 105.9 billion in 2025 to USD 172.3 billion by 2030, registering a robust CAGR of 10.23% during the forecast period. This surge reflects the growing emphasis on pet health and wellness, the premiumization of pet food, and the rapid adoption of specialized formulations catering to different life stages and health conditions.

Dogs continue to dominate the global pet food industry, holding nearly half of the market share, underpinned by their status as preferred companion animals. Consumers increasingly treat their dogs as family members, leading to higher spending on premium food and treats. Manufacturers are responding by launching products with natural ingredients, functional additives, and veterinary-recommended formulations. For instance, Mars Incorporated introduced Pedigree Multivitamins in 2023 to support immunity, digestion, and joint health, highlighting the industry's focus on targeted nutrition.

Key Trends Driving the Global Dog Food Market

Growing Pet Humanization and Adoption Rates

Pet humanization has redefined consumer expectations, with owners prioritizing quality nutrition and wellness products. In countries like the United States and China, over 80% of pet parents treat their dogs as family members, a trend that has fueled rising adoption rates. North America and Asia-Pacific together account for more than half of the global dog population, supported by adoption initiatives and animal welfare campaigns. The COVID-19 pandemic further accelerated pet ownership, with Millennials leading the adoption of companion animals.

Shift Toward Premium and Functional Nutrition

The global dog food market is increasingly shifting from mass-market products to premium, grain-free, organic, and functional formulations. Pet parents are investing in food that offers benefits beyond basic nutrition, such as digestive health, skin and coat care, and joint support. Veterinary diets, in particular, have gained momentum, with brands like Royal Canin introducing products like SKINTOPIC to address specific conditions such as atopic dermatitis.

Expansion of Treats and Nutraceuticals

The treats segment, valued at over USD 13 billion in 2022, has evolved into a channel for delivering functional benefits, such as dental health and joint support. Nutraceuticals and supplements are seeing double-digit growth, driven by consumer awareness of preventive healthcare for pets. ADM's investment in probiotics and postbiotics production facilities underscores the rising demand for advanced nutrition solutions.

Rise of E-commerce and Subscription Models

Online platforms have become a vital distribution channel, offering convenience, wider product selection, and personalized subscription services. In markets like India, nearly three-quarters of dog owners purchase food online. Global players such as Chewy, Amazon, and PetSmart are expanding direct-to-consumer offerings, supported by automated shipping and tailored nutrition recommendations.
