Editorial estimates for a roughly 15kg adult dog, entered and checked by hand.

What the numbers say

One category, a 35-fold spread

Two findings do most of the work in this edition. Both are computed from the table further down this page, not asserted.

The cheapest product in the index works out at $2.25/kg (Black & Gold Adult Dry Dog Food Beef & Vegetables 8kg, Black & Gold); the dearest at $79/kg (ZIWI Peak Air-Dried Lamb 1kg, ZIWI Peak). That is a 35x spread inside one supermarket category, which is why shelf price alone tells you almost nothing.

On a per-day basis, fresh food runs a median of 1.2x the cost of kibble for the same 15kg benchmark dog: $2.98 per day against $2.47. Whether that premium is worth paying is the question our fresh vs kibble guide works through.

Across the whole index the median day costs $2.70, and 11 of the 20 brands we price keep their entire range under that figure. The brand ledger further down shows which ones.

“A bag price is not a price. Divide it by the weight, then by the days.”

The shape of the index

What a normal day of dog food costs

One tick per product on a single scale, with the middle half of the index shaded and the median ruled. The five figures underneath are the whole distribution: cheapest, lower quartile, median, upper quartile, dearest.

Estimated cost per day, 15kg adult dog

Every priced product on one scale

The shaded band is the middle half of the index, from the lower quartile to the upper quartile. Anything outside it is genuinely cheap or genuinely expensive to feed, not just cheaper than the bag beside it. Price per kilogram is not plotted here: it spans 35x in this edition, so on one linear scale most of the index collapses into a single mark. The kilo figures are in the tables below.

By format

What each format adds to a day

A single “from” price hides the spread inside a format. These are the full spans: the ends of each bar are the cheapest and the dearest day we price in that format, and the heavy rule is the median. Formats are ordered cheapest median first.

The span within each format

Cost per day rather than price per kilogram, because the two do not track each other: air-dried food is the dearest kilo in the index by a wide margin and it is fed by the handful. The kilo figures for each format are in the table underneath.

By brand

What a day of feeding costs, brand by brand

Every brand we price, ranked by its median cost per day for the same 15kg benchmark dog. The clay rule is the index median of $2.70, so everything left of it feeds that dog for less than the middle of the market.

Estimated cost per day, 15kg adult dog

Cheapest, median and dearest day by brand

A brand with one product priced shows a single mark rather than a span. Nothing here is a recommendation: a low cost per day is a fact about price, not about the food, and the score that judges the food sits on each brand's review.

Each row carries that brand’s median cost per day and links to the review that scores it. The buckets are read against the index median of $2.70 a day. A brand in the first column is cheaper to feed, which is a fact about price and not a verdict on the food.

Cost against score

What a day of feeding actually buys

One dot per priced product: what it costs to feed the same 15kg dog for a day, against the score we published for that product. The two dashed rules are the index medians, $2.70 a day and 84 out of 100, so the plot reads as four quadrants.

Estimated cost per day against our published score

Every priced product, cost against score

Read this with the method in view: price and value is 25 of the 100 points in our score, so a cheap product carries a little of the horizontal axis with it up the vertical one. The other 75 points are Ingredient Quality, Nutrition & Suitability, Transparency, Availability & Convenience and Customer Sentiment.

Across retailers

The same pack is not one price

Where we hold two or more listings for the same pack, this is how far apart they sit: the dearest listing as a percentage above the cheapest. Sorted widest gap first, and every figure is a shelf price we entered by hand for the August 2026 edition.

Gap between the cheapest and the dearest listing

How far apart the same pack is priced

Only packs we hold two or more listings for can appear, and the count sits under each label so a two-listing gap is never read as a survey. Subscription brands sell direct and have no second shelf price, so they are absent here rather than shown at zero.

Good to know

About the data

What this index is, what it is not, and what you are allowed to do with it.

Every figure is computed from the 39 products in the Dog Food Reviews index: prices we enter and check by hand against Australian retailer and brand listings. They are editorial estimates, not live feeds, and the page states the edition date so you know exactly what you are citing. Always confirm a current price with the seller before buying.

Yes. The index is free to cite with attribution to Dog Food Reviews and a link to this page. If you need the underlying table in another format, or a figure checked before publication, contact us via the site.

Bag sizes and feeding densities differ so much that shelf price is close to meaningless on its own. Cost per day standardises everything to the same question: what does it cost to feed a roughly 15kg adult dog for one day on this product? That is the number the whole index is built around.

This is the August 2026 edition. We refresh the underlying prices periodically and stamp each edition with its date; the edition you cite stays accurate to its date even after we publish a newer one.
