Frequently (and not so frequently) Asked Questions
BRIEF: Is garlic poisonous to dogs?
QUESTION:
I got a list of posions from my vet and garlic was on it, yet many dog
supplements have garlic. So what is the word on Garlic?
ANSWER:
An overdose of onions and/or garlic cloves could cause anemia (not to
mention bad breath) in dogs, among other species. I doubt that the
amount of garlic in the supplements is doing anything harmful (or
helpful, for that matter). Dogs are so easy to feed well that people
need to find gimmics like dog supplements to keep consumers actively
consuming.
