I have a very healthy 3 yr old Chihuahua and he has never had a single flea, or digestive problem in his life. My vet thinks he is the best patient she has when it comes to small breeds. Unlike most small dogs he has all of his teeth, is great physical shape and is not a bit over weight. I'm picky about what I give my dog. He is eating a holistic dog food for small breeds found at pet stores. He loves it. I would never give him something bad. We can't grow garlic in our garden because our cats and dog dig it up and eat it, and they are all in perfect health. Garlic is great for dogs!!!

I feed it to my pets several times a week. Have done so for YEARS and they are 100 percent healthy. My vet approves of the use of garlic AND my pets love it. GARLIC is safe for pets.

Can give me some information on what I can, sometimes can(in small amounts) and never give my dog in terms of vegetables or fruit. I want to give me little guy a good varity of food and healthy diet too!

Onions are not. While dogs will eat both, only the garlic family is friendly for canines. It will help them from getting fleas and ticks, as these parasites don't like the taste it gives from their skin! As you cook a broth to add to your dog's food be sure to add garlic. (Not too much as it can cause indigestion, otherwise it actually aids in digestion and adds good enzymes in dogs tummies!) Cooking for Fido is better than the store bought stuff because you will be careful not to add artificial colors, or artificial flavor enhansors like MSG. Spend the time and see the difference in your dog's coat, weight, and general health. It's a good thing to cook fresh meats, vegetables, and grains for your canines!!

He possesses over 25 years of experience in both traditional and homeopathic veterinary practices, and in small amounts, he has instructed the use of garlic in homemade dog foods, especially during flea season. Also, the dog food recipes listed in Dr. Pitcairn's Guide to Homeopathic Pet Care (the homeopathic bible) also includes garlic in those recipes. I am not currently making my dog's food, but I have in the past. My animals are healthy, robust, vibrant, happy animals. Garlic is chemically *not* the same scenario as onions or raisins, or other documented toxic substances for dogs. I trust Dr. Falconer would never steer me in a direction that would be harmful to my pack. I have been using a certified veterinary homeopath for my dogs’ and cats’ health care needs for 6 years now.

That's unfortunate because you were in the target audience. If you don't feel comfortable even using a "seasoning amount" of garlic, then by all means please leave it out of the recipes. Thank you.

IT IS TOXIC FOR DOGS!!!! TOXIC. Do you really think that leaving it out and saving his digestive tract would really leave your dog saying, "hmmm it could use some potentially fatal garlic, I can't eat this." Just leave it out, forget about it and move on. GOOD LORD PEOPLE!!! IT IS TOXIC FOR DOGS!!!! TOXIC.
