| I started cooking for Lillybelle after she became sick on the recalled can food. I found some recipes here on YT. My favorite (and hers) includes a teaspoon of fresh ground garlic (it comes in a jar in the produce section of the grocery-or fresh). It is a natural rememedy for fleas and ticks as well as other things, it is not toxic or related to onions. I have not had to use Advantix one time this summer and have not seen one flea or tick since Ive been cooking for her with garlic. (which would be more toxic advantix vs natural garlic?..hmm) Its only about one tsp added into a weeks worth of food. I wouldnt use the garlic salt....I wouldnt give garlic + salt...its not good for humans either...added salt = high blood pressure, etc --they would get enough salt in foods. Try a very very tiny amount of natural fresh garlic. If you happened to see "its me or the dog" on animal planet-when they were trying to get the Yorkie to eat-the trainer added garlic to the cooked food. Thats my 2 cents worth. |

| Same here. I only use fresh garlic and only small amounts. But, I have never used the powder or salt. |

| Wow, now I look like a nut... I think that's the original post I responded to...about dogs aren't supposed to have garlic. Sheesh...took me about 10 minutes to figure out I'm not losing my mind. |
