Hilary's Blend
Hilary's Blend Supplement for Home-made Meals for Dogs
Supplement Wise Take
This is a meal-balancer, not a top-up supplement. If you cook or prep your dog's food at home, this is one of the few Canadian products formulated with food-formulation software to actually close the nutrient gaps in home-made recipes — and the free recipe builder at hilarysblend.ca lets you check your own recipe. It is dosed by the amount of food you make (roughly 15-20 g per kg of prepared food), not by your dog's body weight.Formula reviewed: 2026-07-26 · scoring model v1.0 · formula v1
Why we like it
- Formulated specifically to balance home-made meals to AAFCO nutrient profiles, not to top up a commercial diet
- 100% human/pharmaceutical grade ingredients, blended in a regulated human food facility
- No fillers, preservatives or flavour enhancers — the only carrier is chicory root extract (prebiotic inulin)
- Hypoallergenic: no meat, fish, dairy or cereal ingredients
- Free recipe-balancing software so owners can verify their own recipe
- Multi-stage batch testing with retention samples
What to know
- Only balances recipes it was formulated for — use the Complete & Balanced cookbook recipes or the brand's recipe software; it will not automatically balance any random recipe
- Dose depends on the recipe, not the dog's weight — measure by grams of prepared food
- Provides vitamins and minerals only; your recipe still has to supply protein, fat and essential fatty acids
- Sold through Canadian veterinary clinics and the brand webstore, not pet stores or Amazon
- Not a substitute for veterinary guidance if your dog has a medical condition
- Exact per-serving nutrient amounts are printed on the bottle label and are not published online, so our transparency score stays conservative until we load the guaranteed analysis
