中产阶级买狗不再是为了保卫或者食用,而是为了当作宠物,因此宠物保养在新兴国家市场正蓬勃发展。而这种时尚在拉丁美洲的发展是最快的。根据一家市场研究公司欧睿的调查,过去五年中,宠物食品和玩具的开销增长了44%,达到了110亿美元。该公司估计,智利是人均拥有宠物狗数量最多的国家。拉美的宠物应该是世界上最时尚的,随着墨西哥的雨季渐渐结束,狗狗们脱掉时尚鞋子,开始显摆它们的染色的爪子。
Rising incomes allow Latinos to treat mutts as members of the family. More young people areliving alone and putting off marriage, choosing pets for company instead. These pet parentsindulge their animals as if they were children, says Emily Woon, Euromonitors pet-caresupremo, who reports that Latin America has been the star market of recent years. Latinosare especially fond of dogs, which are costlier than cats, but superior in every respect.Whereas in Europe the dog- and cat-food markets are equal, in Latin America dog food outsellscat food by nearly six to one.
随着收入的增加,拉美人渐渐把狗狗们当成家庭成员了。越拉越多的独身年轻人推迟婚姻,选择宠物作为自己的伴侣。欧睿宠物保养权威人士艾米丽伍恩说,这些宠物爸妈们对宠物们溺爱地像自己的孩子一样。据她所说,近年来,拉美已经成了明星市场了。拉美人特别喜欢狗,尽管养狗比养猫要贵,但是在各方面都比养猫好。在欧洲,猫狗食品市场份额相等,但在拉美,狗粮的销售差不多是猫粮的六倍。
