PINNACLE DOG FOOD REVIEW

Pinnacle dog food formulas are mostly designed for all life stages, having feeding guidelines for both puppies and adult dogs. Due to the high protein content of some of these formulas, however, they may not be suitable for senior dogs. There are currently only three bag sizes for Pinnacle brand dog food formulas: a small 1.5 lb bag, a medium 7.5 lb bag and a large 30 lb bag.

Customer reviews of Pinnacle brand dog food formulas are mostly positive. The formulas seem to be well received by dogs that have sensitive stomachs, especially the formulas that have limited ingredients. However, a few dog owners stated that their dogs developed smelly gas on the Pinnacle trout formula. Some dogs also seemed to have to be coerced into eating Pinnacle dog food, while others needed no motivation to eat their dog food formulas.

    I have 3 Shih-Tzus. Allergies! Switched to Pinnacle Trout & Sweet Potatoes. NO more red ears, No more scratching, sneezing etc. You may order through Petflow online. Set up auto ship. Less than at Petco and they have free delivery to the house. Those 30# bags are nice when the delivery man comes right to the kitchen door.

    I have a Great Dane and a Yellow Lab and been feeding the Pinnacle Trout formula to both of them for about two years. They were both recues and in bad condition, but now they look great and their coats are full and shiny. The dogs love it and I am Really happy with the product. May try the Chicken and Oats to blend in for a change.

  3. Jerry says:

    When I rescued a german shepherd the lady who had the dog recommended Pinnacle. I feed my dogs the duck and potato formula, and they love the food. My only complaint is you have to order it on-line. PETCO seems to offer the best deal and they will have it on sale occasionally through their website.
