# 6 Influential Pet Trends in the U.S. [Infographic]

by [Sarah Schmidt](https://blog.marketresearch.com/author/sarah-schmidt), on October 8, 2018

![pet trends](https://blog.marketresearch.com/hs-fs/hubfs/dog%20hanging%20out%20window.jpg?width=300&height=240&name=dog%20hanging%20out%20window.jpg)It may come as no surprise that the Internet is the fastest growing channel for pet products. In fact, sales of pet products sold online will easily double between 2017 and 2022, according to a [report by market research firm Packaged Facts](https://www.packagedfacts.com/Pet-Outlook-11270807/?progid=90714).

The $86 billion pet industry is certainly transforming alongside the rise of e-commerce, but that’s not the only trend to watch in the coming years. Packaged Facts highlights five other trends in a new infographic:

- The growth of mass premiumization
- The influence of millennial shoppers
- Digital veterinary and pet health
- The threat of Amazon to brick-and-mortar pet stores
- Food formulated for age and weight

Learn more about each of these pet trends in the infographic below.
