Dog Food Premix: Canine Supplements for Homemade Food

Trying home cooked dog food? Consider a supplement to balance your doggo’s diet and be sure they’re getting everything they need!

Did you know that almost all dehydrated sweet potato found in dog food comes from China? The dehydration process is also an unnecessary use of energy and ultimately removes the nutritional value of most fruits and vegetables. And those plastic feed bags are NOT recyclable and are just so wasteful.

My dog is on a limited diet or has X illness, will this be right for my dog's diet?

There is not a single diet that is right for all pets. This is the best supplement for homemade dog food indicated for maintenance and regular diets. It is not made specifically for any health ailments.

My dog has allergies to X. Can I use this supplement in my dog's food?

The home cooking guide you'll receive after ordering, offers many variations of proteins and vegetables that can be used. Verify the allergens are not present in the supplement itself, then modify the home cooking to accommodate your pet's allergies. We recommend the Limited formula for dogs with allergies.

Can I prepare a single meal at a time with this supplement?

No, these homemade dog food supplements are prepared by a veterinarian specifically for cooking in large quantities and will only be nutritionally balanced when used with the recipe guide you'll receive in an email after your order is placed.

Holistic Vet Blend® Canine Limited Blend can be added to a recipes provided by Dr. Dody in an email after purchase. However, here is an idea of a recipe that has 5 basic ingredients:

- 3 pounds ground meat (turkey, chicken, beef, venison, lamb, pork, fish) at least 83% lean
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- 1 pound diced carrots
- 4 ounces of a green leafy vegetable: kale, spinach or broccoli
- 5 cups of a carbohydrate energy source: brown rice, white rice, rolled oats, quinoa, sweet potato, russet potato, elbow pasta (regular or gluten free)

You can cook each of the items separately. For example you could cook the rice in a rice cooker or on the stove top, bake or steam the potatoes, or cook the quinoa with broth or water. Combine all items and add the premix after cooking.

This recipe is easily prepared with all 5 ingredients added to a 6 quart pressure cooker (Holistic Vet Blend® Regular Blend has more vegetables and fits better in an 8 quart pressure cooker) and the premix added after the cooking process. The recipe can be kept for 4 days in the refrigerator and the rest frozen in servings for future feeding.
