The exact composition of HILARY’S BLEND supplement is a trade secret. Its composition is quite different from traditional pet supplements.

HILARY’S BLEND supplement is specifically designed, using food formulation software, to balance the home-made recipes featured in the book Complete & Balanced: 101 Healthy Home-made Meals for Dogs by Hilary Watson. The nutrient content of the supplement itself is not as important as the nutrient content of the supplement when combined with the recipes in the book. It is the supplement + foods in the recipe that the dog will consume, so it is the supplement + foods’ combined nutrient content that is relevant. Each recipe in the book has a nutrition table listing 43 different nutrients on an as fed, dry matter and per 1000 kcal basis. These values can be compared to the AAFCO Dog Food Nutrient Profiles, which provide the basis for making a claim of “complete and balanced” nutrition. Recipes created with the free online software at http://hilarysblend.ca also have a full nutrient profile provided under the “Nutritional Information” tab.
