Product FAQ
Is Inukshuk 26/16 good for regular pet dogs?
Yes. Inukshuk 26/16 can be a good fit for many regular pet dogs when the feeding amount matches their activity level and body condition.
26/16 is often a good starting point for regular dogs, puppies, seniors, and dogs with average daily activity. Because Inukshuk is nutrient-dense, many dogs need less food by volume than they did on another brand.
Start with the feeding guide, then adjust based on your dog’s weight, stool quality, appetite, and overall condition.
Can puppies eat Inukshuk 26/16?
Yes. Inukshuk 26/16 is an All Life Stage formula and is suitable for puppies when fed according to the feeding guidelines.
For most puppies, 26/16 is the recommended starting formula. It provides complete and balanced nutrition for growing dogs without starting them on a higher energy adult formula too early.
Monitor your puppy’s growth, body condition, and stool quality as they develop. If you are unsure about your puppy’s feeding needs, contact our team or speak with your veterinarian.
Is Inukshuk 26/16 a good starting formula?
Yes. Inukshuk 26/16 is the best starting formula for many dogs.
It is often used for regular dogs, puppies, seniors, active dogs, and dogs with moderate daily activity. It is also a good place to begin if you are new to Inukshuk and want to see how your dog responds before moving to a higher energy formula.
If your dog needs more calories to maintain weight or condition, you can consider moving to 30/25, Marine 30/25, or 32/32 depending on their needs.
How much Inukshuk 26/16 should I feed?
Start with the feeding guide on the bag, then adjust based on your dog’s body condition, activity level, stool quality, and weight.
Because 26/16 is nutrient-dense, your dog may need less food than they did on another brand. Feeding amount can also change with age, season, workload, and daily activity.
If your dog is gaining unwanted weight, reduce the amount slightly. If your dog is losing weight or struggling to maintain condition, increase gradually or consider whether a higher energy formula is a better fit.
What is the difference between Inukshuk 26/16 and 30/25?
Inukshuk 26/16 is an All Life Stage formula and is often the best starting point for regular dogs, puppies, seniors, and dogs with moderate activity.
Inukshuk 30/25 is a higher energy Adult Maintenance formula for adult dogs with greater daily demands. It provides more fat and calories than 26/16, which can help active adult dogs maintain condition with less feeding volume.
If your dog is doing well on 26/16, there may be no need to move up. If your dog is losing weight, struggling to maintain condition, or working harder seasonally, 30/25 may be worth considering.
When should I move my dog from 26/16 to a higher energy formula?
Consider moving from 26/16 to a higher energy formula if your adult dog is losing weight, struggling to maintain condition, eating more than 4 cups, or increasing their daily workload.
30/25 and Marine 30/25 provide more energy than 26/16. 32/32 is the highest energy formula in the Inukshuk line and is typically used for very high-output dogs, endurance work, or hard keepers.
Make formula changes gradually and continue to monitor stool quality, body condition, and activity level.
