She has repeatedly posted on her site to avoid garlic although it is a AAFCO permitted food.
She has said: "onions and garlic contain an alkaloid disulfide compound that is toxic to red blood cell membranes and irreversibly denatures hemoglobin" and that "there is no known concentration of garlic proven not to cause a problem."

Eeek! When the subject of garlic has come up before, I thought I looked at my dogs' food ingredients and saw garlic listed and wasn't happy about it. I checked again this morning and do not see it. I wonder if it was removed? Either way, glad it is not in there.
