Is it okay for dogs to eat garlic? What I've been reading seems to be conflicting, some say adding garlic to the dog's meals helps to repel fleas, some quality dog food also contains garlic in the ingredients, while other stuff I've been reading says garlic is toxic for dogs. So which is it?

i have given my dogs garlic. theyve never gotten sick from ik. i used it to repell fleas and ticks. it did do this some what but not sufficiently. also teatree oil in the neck may repell fleas and ticks. i just use a brand that goes in the neck. i have never heard of it being toxic. in poeple it purifies the bloed, but with dogs?

Thanks for the info, I guess in small amounts it won't hurt and may be of some benefit.
