I also have never heard that garlic is bad in fact I have only heard the opposite that it is good for them. Onions on the other hand I have heard are toxic but not garlic

How much garlic does the recipe call for?

Garlic in moderation is okay for dogs and has many benefits. The key is definitely moderation. My dogs get it added to their veggie mix usually twice a week.

ilovemypets is right, garlic works wonders as a natural flea repellent!!

Onions should be avoided.

THE RECIPE DOESN'T CALL FOR MUCH AND AS MOST OF YOU NOTED, IT IS GREAT FOR FLEAS. JAS IS RIGHT, MODERATION IS THE KEY. THANKS FOR ALL OF YOUR REPLIES.
