As well, 83% of pet owners also claim to be interested in treatments designed to improve their pet's wellbeing (e.g. massage and anxiety therapy). </p> <p> Yousef Alsadoud, Co-founder, Tiny Paws UE says: "Attitudes are shifting positively, with pets increasingly being seen as family members. We are seeing clients demand higher quality and better services for their pets. Basic paw and dog cleaning is no longer enough. Clients are now interested in medicated shampoos, eco-friendly products and holistic services. Whatever makes their pet feel better."</p> <h3> What are the trending Christmas gifts for pets in 2024?</h3> <p> While in previous years pet owners have been inclined to buy their dog a new toy or tasty treats, 2024 is officially the year of 'pet wellness'. </p> <p> Fresha's data highlights that demand for ethical pet treatments are soaring when it comes to search volumes this Christmas, with the most popular being 'dog acupuncture', which has seen a 246% increase in search over the last 12 months!
