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.

PINNACLE CUSTOMER RATINGS

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.
