Edited by B&T Magazine



The new brand platform ‘Life’s a Treat’ created by BMF aims to highlight how PetBarn is committed to the health and happiness of pets and pet owners.

The campaign focuses on everyday moments that make us love our pets and is a glimpse into the minds of a dog, cat, bearded dragon, fish and puppy when they are given the Petbarn treatment.

Dantie van der Merwe, creative director at BMF, said: “It doesn’t take much to make pets happy. Sometimes it takes just exactly the right thing. We hope it brings a knowing smile to both pets and pet parents everywhere.”

Adriane McDermott, chief marketing officer at Petbarn, said:  “Everything we do and everything we range at Petbarn helps make ‘life a treat’ because we believe pet’s health and wellness leads to everyone’s happiness.”

“We know they’re more than pets, BMF helped us show we’re much more than just a pet store.”

The campaign launches in Australia across TV, BVOD, OOH, display, radio and social to connect with pet owner audiences.
