sandymere 8,263 Posted February 15, 2013 Report Share Posted February 15, 2013 (edited) think about it, do the FRENCH GET LESS FLEAS THAN THE BRITS? Garlic stopping fleas and fairys down the garden. Some info here from someone who doesn't think your a bit silly, or at least pretends.http://skeptvet.com/Blog/2012/02/garlic-for-pets-whats-it-good-for/' Edited February 15, 2013 by sandymere Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I don't feed garlic but see vampires all the time, no their phlebotomists. Garlic is one of those supplements, harmless to humans but not dogs, ten will get away with it but the next might suffer with anaemia, fine for show dogs but not so good for workers and if it's fed from puppyhood then the chronic condition is not noted just a dog with slightly less stamina etc than it has potential to have. To my mind not worth the risk. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
