Which bag size should I buy?

How long each bag lasts for your dog's weight, and where the price per kilo starts to bite.

Pick a bag that lasts longer than the gap between deliveries, so the next one arrives before you run out. The price per kilo drops at 6kg and again at 12kg, and the food keeps for 18 months unopened.

The price per kilo drops at two points. Moving from 4kg to 6kg takes a fifth off every meal, and moving from 8kg to 12kg takes off almost another quarter. Either side of those steps the price per kilo barely moves: 2kg and 4kg are the same, and so are 12kg and 24kg.

So should I just buy the biggest one?

Only if your dog will get through it in a few months. A 24kg bag suits a large dog, a multi-dog household, or anyone happy to decant into an airtight container. A 5kg dog would take well over a year, which is longer than the food keeps well once opened.

For a single-dog household, 12kg on a subscription is the best value per kilo, and a 24kg costs no less. Every size from 6kg up clears the free shipping threshold on subscription.

If you haven't tried it yet

Start with the 2kg sample at $19.99 and see how your dog does. Size up once you know it suits them.
