Animal wound care involves the management and treatment of wounds in animals, including pets such as cats and dogs, as well as livestock. Ensuring proper wound care is crucial for the health and well-being of animals, as wounds can cause pain and discomfort. This practice is commonly employed to facilitate healing and prevent infections in animal wounds.
The primary product categories within the realm of animal wound care include surgical wound care products, advanced wound care products, traditional wound care products, and therapy devices. Surgical wound care products encompass a variety of items designed for managing wounds resulting from surgical procedures. The range of animals covered includes both companion animals and livestock. These products are distributed through various channels such as retail and e-commerce and are utilized by diverse end-users, including veterinary hospitals or clinics, homecare, and others.
Tariffs have affected the animal wound care market by increasing costs of imported wound dressings, therapy devices, and raw materials, impacting product pricing and availability. Companion animal and livestock segments in regions such as North America and Europe are most affected due to reliance on imported advanced wound care products. However, tariffs have encouraged local manufacturing, alternative sourcing strategies, and development of cost-effective wound care solutions, supporting long-term market stability.

Animal wound care supports pet adoption by promoting the recovery and visible health of injured or rescued animals, enhancing their adoptability and boosting adopter confidence. For instance, in March 2025, according to the American Pet Products Association, a US-based non-profit organization, 94 million U.S. households owned at least one pet, compared to 82 million in 2023. Therefore, rising pet adoption is driving the animal wound care market.
