Leaps & Bounds: Petbarn's house brand.
Leaps & Bounds is Petbarn's own (Greencross-owned) house brand — an affordable, convenient everyday range that's easy to grab in store. It sits right next to national brands like SavourLife, Ivory Coat, Black Hawk and Prime100, so comparing them on price per kg and ingredients is the best way to decide what suits your dog and your budget. For many shoppers the house brand is a sensible value pick; others will prefer a particular national-brand recipe.

Petbarn vs the alternatives.
Where else we'd happily shop
Petbarn is a top pick, but it's not the only one. If you prefer online-first ordering, these stores carry the same national brands and score well in our index too.
Pet Circle
Online pet store
Pet Circle is a strong online experience with a genuinely deep premium catalogue, but it trades on premium positioning rather than the lowest per-kg price. On mainstream brands you can frequently do better elsewhere — including Petbarn with member pricing or Repeat Delivery — and you lose the option of a store when you need advice or a return. Check the per-kg price before you assume the polished site means the best value.

Budget Pet Products
Online pet store
Budget Pet Products is worth a look only if you buy a single mainstream dry-food line in bulk and price per kg is the one thing you care about. The narrow premium and prescription range, basic delivery and bare-bones subscription mean it can't carry a whole basket. For range, prescription support and stores to fall back on, Petbarn is the more complete choice.

My Pet Warehouse
Online pet store
My Pet Warehouse is fine, but rarely the best answer. Its smaller store network, thinner range and patchy regional delivery mean it's hard to justify over Petbarn, which beats it on range and availability while staying competitive on price. Worth a per-kg check only if you happen to live near one of its stores.
