Before I got my puppy, I did a lot of research on natural treatments for the usual problems. Garlic was one of the first things I looked up because we used to feed my previous dog garlic pills.
If you google it, you'll notice there are a lot of sites that say how bad garlic is for your dogs, but most of them don't really say that these things happen when you feed them gross amounts.
The bottom line is, almost anything can kill in large doses. I've fed Gordon half a garlic pill a day and he's as fit as a fiddle. It does just what it says. The garlic repels fleas and mosquitos, but it might take a little while to build up in their system enough to offer good protection.
I'm not sure about the spray. Never heard of it before, but the Brewer's Yeast garlic tablets work well enough... If your dog can deal with taking a pill everyday. Just make sure you give 'em the correct dosage and there should be no problems. My previous dog Jason lived to the ripe old age of 15, so I'm pretty sure garlic didn't kill him. |
