Garlic is on AAFCO's acceptable ingredients list but hopefully gets taken off. While most dogs will do just fine with it, since garlic isn't necessary I feel that I would be putting dogs in danger by recommending it. I think the problem may be bigger in cats though. This is why I stopped recommending Innova.
Wow, I didn't know that. Thanks for the info!!!
