Onions cause bleeding issues in dogs like they do in humans. My dogs love garlic, but I cook with garlic all the time. I give them brewer's yeast tabs with garlic and they eat them like treats. I think garlic is ok as long as you don't let them have say a few cloves of it. But don't quote me on the amount lol. I believe she added the garlic so the Bailey would be more interested in eating his own food not off of mommy's fork. She also made a liver, garlic treat on the "It's me or the fat dog" episode that the beagle went crazy for....wish I knew her recipe, I'd like to make homemade liver treats, they're just so expensive where I live.
